%F a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} C(n,k)*C(2*n-k+1,n-k)*(k+1)/(2*n-k+1).

%F G.f. A(x) satisfies: d/dx[log(1 - 4*x*A(x))] = -4*(1-5*x)/(1-13*x+43*x^2-7*x^3).

%F O.g.f.: 2*(R+x)/(R*(R+x+1)), where R = sqrt(x^2+6*x+1). [_Dan Drake_, May 19 2010]

%F Conjecture: +(2*n+5)*(n+1)*a(n) +4*(-3*n^2-9*n+5)*a(n-1) +(2*n+7)*(n-1)*a(n-2)=0. - _R. J. Mathar_, Jun 22 2016

%e The dot product of Catalan row 4 and Pascal row 4 equals

%e a(4) = [14,14,9,4,1]*[1,4,6,4,1] = 141

%e which is equivalent to obtaining the final term

%e in these repeated partial sums of Pascal row 4:

%e .5,11,15,16

%e ..16,31,47
