FORMULA

The following conjectural formula for this sequence is apparently due to Ira Gessel: a(0) = 1, a(2n) = a(2n-1)*(12n+2)/(3n+1), a(2n+1) = a(2n)*(4n+2)/(n+1).

G.f.: (hypergeom([ -1/12, 1/4],[2/3],-64*x*(4*x+1)^2/(4*x-1)^4)-1)/(2*x) [From Mark van Hoeij (hoeij(AT)math.fsu.edu), Nov 02 2009]

G.f.: (T(x)-1)/(2*x) where T(x) satisfies 27*(4*x-1)^2*T^8 - 18*(4*x-1)^2*T^4 - (128*x^2+192*x+8)*T^2 - (4*x-1)^2 = 0 [From Mark van Hoeij (hoeij(AT)math.fsu.edu), Nov 02 2009]
