%N Generalized Catalan numbers.

%C a(n) = K(8,8; n)/8 with K(a,b; n) defined in a comment to A068763.

%H Fung Lam, <a href="/A068770/b068770.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..750</a>

%F a(n) = (8^n) * p(n, -7/8) with the row polynomials p(n, x) defined from array A068763.

%F a(n+1) = 8*sum(a(k)*a(n-k), k=0..n), n>=1, a(0)=1=a(1).

%F G.f.: (1-sqrt(1-32*x*(1-7*x)))/(16*x).

%F a(n) = (4^(n-1)*14^(1/2*n+1/2)*LegendreP(n+1,2/7*14^(1/2)) - LegendreP(n,2/7*14^(1/2))*4^n*14^(1/2*n))/n for n > 0. - _Mark van Hoeij_, Apr 23 2010

%F Recurrence: (n+1)*a(n) = 224*(2-n)*a(n-2) + 16*(2*n-1)*a(n-1). - _Fung Lam_, Mar 04 2014

%F a(n) ~ sqrt(1+2*sqrt(2)) * (16+4*sqrt(2))^n / (4*sqrt(Pi)*n^(3/2)). - _Vaclav Kotesovec_, Mar 04 2014
