FORMULA
G.f.: g*(g-1)/(3-2*g)^2, where function g=g(x) satisfies g=1+xg^3, and can be expressed as g(x) = 2*sin(arcsin(3*sqrt(3*x)/2)/3)/sqrt(3*x). [Corrected by Max Alekseyev, Oct 27 2022]
g(x) = Sum_{n >= 0} binomial(3*n,n) / (2*n+1) * x^n. - Max Alekseyev, Oct 27 2022
Recurrence: 8*n*(2*n-1)*a(n) = 6*(36*n^2-45*n+10)*a(n-1) - 81*(3*n-5)*(3*n-1)*a(n-2). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 13 2012
a(n) ~ 3^(3*n)/2^(2*n+2). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 13 2012
a(n) = Sum_{i=0..n-1} C(3*i-1,i)*C(3*(n-i),n-i-1). - Vladimir Kruchinin, Jun 09 2020
a(n) = 2^(n-2)*(3*n-1)*hypergeometric([-3*n, 1-n, -n+4/3], [-n, -n+1/3], -1/2). The a(n) are values of the polynomials A358091. - Peter Luschny, Oct 28 2022
