COMMENTS
This is the A-sequence for the Delannoy triangle A008288. See the W. Lang link under A006232 for Sheffer a- and z-sequences where also Riordan A- and Z-sequences are explained. O.g.f. A(y) = y/Finv(y) = 2*y/(-(1 + y) + sqrt(y^2 + 6*y + 1)) = ((1 + y) + sqrt(1 + 6*y + y^2))/2 with Finv the inverse function of F(x) = x*(1 + x)/(1 - x). The o.g.f. of the Z-sequence is 1.

FORMULA
G.f.: (1 + x + sqrt(1 + 6*x + x^2))/2. - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Jan 04 2012
G.F.: G(0) where G(k)= 1 + x + x/G(k+1); (continued fraction, 1-step). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Jan 04 2012
D-finite with recurrence: n*a(n) + 3*(2*n-3)*a(n-1) + (n-3)*a(n-2) = 0. - R. J. Mathar, Nov 24 2012
a(n) ~ (-1)^(n+1) * sqrt(3*sqrt(2) - 4) * (3 + 2*sqrt(2))^n / (2 * sqrt(Pi) * n^(3/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Feb 12 2014
0 = a(n)*(a(n+1) + 15*a(n+2) + 4*a(n+3)) + a(n+1)*(-3*a(n+1) + 34*a(n+3) + 15*a(n+3)) + a(n+2)*(-3*a(n+2) + a(n+3)) for all integer n > 0. - Michael Somos, Jul 07 2020
From Seiichi Manyama, Oct 08 2023: (Start)
G.f. satisfies A(x) = 1 + x + x/A(x).
a(n) = (-1)^(n-1) * Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(2*k-1,k) * binomial(n+k-2,n-k)/(2*k-1). (End)
EXAMPLE
G.f. = 1 + 2*x - 2*x^2 + 6*x^3 - 22*x^4 + 90*x^5 - 394*x^6 + 1806*x^7 + ...
