FORMULA

a(n) = (n^2 + 3*n + 6)*(3*n + 1)!/(n!*(2*n + 3)!) .

EXAMPLE

Catalan triangle A033184 begins:

1;

1, 1;

2, 2, 1;

5, 5, 3, 1;

14, 14, 9, 4, 1;

42, 42, 28, 14, 5, 1; ...

where column k equals the (k+1)-fold convolution of A000108, k>=0.

Illustrate a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} A033184(n,k)*A033184(n,n-k):

a(1) = 1*1 + 1*1 = 2;

a(2) = 2*1 + 2*2 + 1*2 = 8;

a(3) = 5*1 + 5*3 + 3*5 + 1*5 = 40;

a(4) = 14*1 + 14*4 + 9*9 + 4*14 + 1*14 = 221.

PROG

(PARI) {a(n)=sum(k=0, n, binomial(2*n-k, n-k)*(k+1)/(n+1)*binomial(n+k, k)*(n-k+1)/(n+1))}

(PARI) {a(n)=(n^2 + 3*n + 6)*(3*n + 1)!/(n!*(2*n + 3)!)}
