FORMULA

a(n)=sum{k=0..floor(n/2), Binomial(n, k)Binomial(2(n-k), n)2^k} - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Sep 08 2004

a(n)=sum{k=0..floor(n/2), C(n,2k)*C(2k,k)*3^k*2^(n-2k)}; a(n)=sum{k=0..floor(n/2), C(n,k)*C(n-k,k)*3^k*2^(n-2k)}. - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Sep 19 2006

E.g.f. : exp(2x) Bessel_I(0,2sqrt(3)x)
