G. C. Greubel, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..1000
FORMULA
a(n) = ( 2^(n-1) + (0^n)/2 )*binomial(2*n+3, n).
(n+3)*a(n) +2*(-7*n-13)*a(n-1) +24*(2*n+1)*a(n-2)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Oct 29 2014
From Amiram Eldar, Jan 16 2024: (Start)
Sum_{n>=0} 1/a(n) = 37/7 - 208*arcsin(1/(2*sqrt(2)))/(7*sqrt(7)).
Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n/a(n) = 296*log(2)/27 - 61/9. (End)
EXAMPLE
a(0) = ( 2^(-1)+(0^0)/2 )*C(3,0) = ( 1/2+1/2 )*1 = 1 (use 0^0 = 1). - clarified by Jon Perry, Oct 29 2014
