COMMENTS
n divides binomial(n^2,n+1).
Proof 1 :(n+1)*binomial(n^2,n+1) = n*(n-1)*binomial(n^2,n) => n divide binomial(n^2,n+1) because gcd(n,n+1) = 1.
Proof 2 : a(n) = binomial(n^2,n+1)/n = (n-1)*binomial(n^2-2,n-1)=> a(n) is an integer. - Michel Lagneau, May 13 2010

FORMULA
a(n) = binomial(n^2,n+1)/n
EXAMPLE
For n=4, 1092 is in the sequence because binomial(16,5)/4 = 4368/4 = 1092.
