Table of n, a(n) for n=0..18.

Formula

a(n) = 4*hypergeom([ -n, n/2+5/2, n/2+3], [4, 2], -4).

Recurrence: (n+3)^2*(n+4)*(3*n - 2)*(3*n + 1)*a(n) = 10*(n+1)*(n+3)*(3*n - 2)*(3*n + 2)^2*a(n-1) - (n-1)*(n+1)*(3*n + 4)*(9*n^2 - 15*n + 14)*a(n-2) + (n-4)*(n-2)*(n-1)*(3*n + 1)*(3*n + 4)*a(n-3). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jul 05 2018

Mathematica

a[n_] := 4*HypergeometricPFQ[{-n, (n + 5)/2, n/2 + 3}, {4, 2}, -4];
