COMMENTS

a(n) is the number of walks of length 2n+1 on a cubic lattice that start at the origin and end at (1,0,0) using steps (1,0,0), (-1,0,0), (0,1,0), (0,-1,0), (0,0,1), (0,0,-1).

FORMULA

a(n) = binomial(2n+1,n) * sum( binomial(n,k) * binomial(n+1,k) * binomial(2k,k), k, 0, n )

Ordinary generating function - Sergey Perepechko Jan 31 2011

G(z)=1/6 * (1/sqrt(1+12*z)*hypergeom([1/8,3/8],[1],64/81*z*(1+sqrt(1-36*z))^2*(2+sqrt(1-36*z))^4/(1+12*z)^4)*hypergeom([1/8,3/8],[1],64/81*z*(1-sqrt(1-36*z))^2*(2-sqrt(1-36*z))^4/(1+12*z)^4) - 1)

a(n) = A002896(n+1)/6

MATHEMATICA

f[n_] := Binomial[2 n + 1, n]*Sum[ Binomial[n, k]*Binomial[n + 1, k]*Binomial[2 k, k], {k, 0, n}]; Array[f, 16, 0] (* RGWv *)

PROG

Maxima: a(n) = binomial(2n+1, n) * sum( binomial(n, k) * binomial(n+1, k) * binomial(2k, k), k, 0, n )
