Alois P. Heinz, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..250
FORMULA
a(n) = 1/n * Sum_{j=0..n-1} C(3*n,j)*(n-j)*4^j for n>0, a(0) = 1.
Recurrence: n*(2*n-1)*(4*n-5)*a(n) = (1216*n^3 - 2452*n^2 + 1267*n - 120)*a(n-1) - 750*(3*n-5)*(3*n-4)*(4*n-1)*a(n-2). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Aug 31 2014
a(n) ~ 4 * 3^(3*n+1/2) / (49 * sqrt(Pi) * n^(3/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Aug 31 2014
MAPLE
a:= n-> `if`(n=0, 1, add(binomial(3*n, j)*(n-j)*4^j, j=0..n-1)/n):
seq(a(n), n=0..20);
