COMMENTS

Series reversion of x/(1+3x+3x^2). Transform of 3^n under the matrix A107131. A row of A107267.

Counts colored Motzkin paths, where H(1,0) and U(1,1) each have 3 colors and D(1,-1) one color. - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), May 18 2005

Number of Motzkin paths of length n in which both the "up" and the "level" steps come in three colors. - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), May 18 2005

Third binomial transform of 1,0,3,0,18,0... or 3^n*C(n) (A005159) with interpolated zeros. - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), May 24 2005

As a continued fraction, the g.f. is 1/(1-3*x-3*x^2/(1-3*x-3*x^2/(1-3*x-3*x^2/(1-3*x-3*x^2/(..... [From Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Dec 02 2008]

FORMULA

G.f.: (1-3x-sqrt(1-6x-3x^2))/(6x^2); a(n)=sum{k=0..n, (1/(k+1))C(k+1, n-k+1)C(n, k)3^k}.

a(n)=sum{k=0..floor(n/2), C(n, 2k)C(k)*3^(n-k)} - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), May 18 2005

E.g.f.: exp(3x)Bessel_I(1, sqrt(3)*2*x)/(sqrt(3)x); - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), May 24 2005

a(n)=(1/pi)*int(x^n*sqrt(-x^2+6x+3)/6,x,3-2sqrt(3),3+2sqrt(3)); - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Sep 16 2006

a(n)=A156016(n+1)/3. [From Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Feb 04 2009]
