Formula

a(n) = Sum_{l=0..n}(C(n,l)*Sum_{i=l..n}(C(i+l-1,i)*C(n-l,n-i))).

a(n) ~ 2^((3*n-1)/2) * (1+sqrt(2))^(n-1/2) / sqrt(Pi*n). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Aug 13 2015

D-finite with recurrence: n*a(n) +(-11*n+8)*a(n-1) +2*(17*n-28)*a(n-2) +8*(-5*n+12)*a(n-3) +16*(n-3)*a(n-4)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Jan 25 2020

Maple
