FORMULA

E.g.f.: exp(2*x)*BesselI(0, 2*sqrt(5)*x). More generally, e.g.f.: exp(b*x)*BesselI(0, 2*sqrt(c)*x) yields central coefficients of (1+b*x+c*x^2)^n. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Mar 21 2004

a(n)=sum{k=0..floor(n/2), binomial(n, k)binomial(2(n-k), n)4^k} - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Sep 08 2004

Define Q(n, x)=sum{k=0..floor(n/2), binomial(n, k)binomial(2(n-k), n)x^(n-2k)}. A084770(n) is 2^n*Q(n, 1/2). - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Sep 08 2004

EXAMPLE

G.f.: 1/sqrt(1-2*b*x+(b^2-4*c)*x^2) yields central coefficients of (1+b*x+c*x^2)^n.
