a(n) is also the number of (0,1)-matrices A=(a_ij) of size n X 2n such that each row has exactly two 1's and each column has exactly one 1 and with the restriction that no 1 stands on the line from a_11 to a_22. - Shanzhen Gao, Feb 24 2010
a(n) is the number of permutations of the multiset {1,1,2,2,...,n,n} with no fixed points. - Alexander Burstein, May 16 2020
Also the number of 2-uniform ordered set partitions of {1...2n} containing no two successive vertices in the same block. - Gus Wiseman, Jul 04 2020

FORMULA
|
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} ((binomial(n, k)*(-1)^(n-k)*(n+k)!)/2^k).
a(n) = (-1)^n * n! * A000806(n), n>0. - Vladeta Jovovic, Nov 19 2009
a(n) = n*(2*n-1)*a(n-1) + (n-1)*n*a(n-2). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Aug 07 2013
a(n) ~ 2^(n+1)*n^(2*n)*sqrt(Pi*n)/exp(2*n+1). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Aug 07 2013
a(n) = n! * A278990(n). - Alexander Burstein, May 16 2020

EXAMPLE
|
a(2) = 2 because there are two permutations of {1,1,2,2} avoiding equal consecutive terms: 1212 and 2121.
