COMMENTS
| Binomial transform of A084609. Central coefficients of (1+3x+3x^2)^n.
The number of free (3,3)-Motzkin paths of length n, where free (k,t)-Motzkin paths are the free Motzkin paths with level steps of weight k and down steps of weight t. For example a(2)=15 because there are 9, 3, 3 paths consisting of two level steps, UD's and DU's, respectively. - Carol J. Wang (cerlined7(AT)hotmail.com), Nov 27 2007

FORMULA
| a(n)=sum{k=0..floor(n/2), C(n,2k)*C(2k,k)*3^(n-k)}.
E.g.f. : exp(3x) Bessel_I(0,2sqrt(3)x).
Conjecture: n*a(n) +3*(1-2*n)*a(n-1) +3*(1-n)*a(n-2)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Nov 14 2011
