FORMULA
G.f.: (1 - sqrt(1 - 16*x) - 8*x)/(32*x^2). - Bruno Berselli, Mar 07 2016
a(n) = -2^(4*n + 3)*binomial(n + 1/2, -3/2), after Peter Luschny in A000108. - Bruno Berselli, Mar 07 2016
From Amiram Eldar, May 15 2022: (Start)
Sum_{n>=0} 1/a(n) = 52/75 + 512*arcsin(1/4)/(75*sqrt(15)).
Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n/a(n) = 164/289 + 1536*arcsinh(1/4)/(289*sqrt(17)). (End)
