Moment sequence of the trace of the square of a random matrix in USp(2)=SU(2). If X=tr(A^2) is a random variable (a distributed with Haar measure) then a(n) = E[X^n]. - Andrew V. Sutherland, Feb 29 2008
This array is one of a family of Catalan arrays related by compositions of the special fractional linear (Mobius) transformation P(x,t) = x/(1-t*x); its inverse Pinv(x,t) = P(x,-t); an o.g.f. of the Catalan numbers A000108, C(x) = [1-sqrt(1-4x)]/2; and its inverse Cinv(x) = x*(1-x). The Motzkin sums, or Riordan numbers, A005043 are generated by Mot(x)=C[P(x,1)]. One could, of course, choose the Riordan numbers as the parent sequence.
O.g.f.: G(x) = C[P[P(x,1),1]1] = C[P(x,2)] = [1-sqrt(1-4*x/(1+2x)]/2 = x - x^2 + 2 x^3 - ... = Mot[P(x,1)].
Ginv(x) = Pinv[Cinv(x),2] = P[Cinv(x),-2] = x(1-x)/[1-2x(1-x)] = (x-x^2)/[1-2(x-x^2)] = x*A146559(x).

FORMULA

a(n) = (-1)^n*C(n, floor(n/2)) = (-1)^n*A001405(n).
a(n) = (1/Pi)*Integral_{t=0..Pi}(2cos(2t))^n*2sin^2(t) dt. - Andrew V. Sutherland, Feb 29 2008, Mar 09 2008
a(n) = (-2)^n + Sum_{k=0..n-1} a(k)*a(n-1-k), a(0)=1. - Philippe Deléham, Dec 12 2009
O.g.f.: (1 + x*c(x^2))/(1 + 2*x), with the o.g.f. c(x) for the Catalan numbers A000108. From the o.g.f. of the Riordan type Catalan triangle A053121. This is the rewritten g.f. given in the previous formula. This is G(-x) with the o.g.f. G(x) of A001405. - Wolfdieter Lang, Sep 22 2013
D-finite with recurrence (n+1)*a(n) +2*a(n-1) +4*(-n+1)*a(n-2)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Dec 04 2013
Recurrence (an alternative): (n+1)*a(n) = 8*(n-2)*a(n-3) + 4*(n-2)*a(n-2) + 2*(-n-1)*a(n-1), n>=3. - Fung Lam, Mar 22 2014
Asymptotics: a(n) ~ (-1)^n*2^(n+1/2)/sqrt(n*Pi). - Fung Lam, Mar 22 2014
E.g.f.: BesselI(0,2*x) - BesselI(1,2*x). - Peter Luschny, Dec 17 2014
G.f. A(x) satisfies: A(x) = 1/(1 + 2*x) + x*A(x)^2. - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Jul 10 2020
