%N Numbers k such that k^2 - 1 divides binomial(2k,k).

%C Is a(n) asymptotic to c*n with 9 < c < 10?

%C A subset of A004782: numbers k such that 2(2k-3)!/(k!(k-1)!) is an integer.

%C Equivalently, numbers k such that k-1 divides A000108(k), the k-th Catalan number. - _M. F. Hasler_, Nov 11 2015

%C The data does not appear to support the conjectured asymptote statement (neither the constant nor being linear). - _Bill McEachen_, Feb 26 2024
