Seiichi Manyama, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..746
FORMULA
a(n) = 1 + 3 * Sum_{i=0..n-1} Sum_{j=0..n-i-1} a(i) * a(j) * a(n-i-j-1).
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(n+k,n-k) * 3^k * binomial(3*k,k) / (2*k+1).
a(n) = hypergeom([1/3, 2/3, -n, n + 1], [1/2, 1, 3/2], -(3/2)^4). - Peter Luschny, Nov 12 2021
a(n) ~ sqrt(873 + 89*sqrt(97)) * (89 + 9*sqrt(97))^n / (3^(5/2) * sqrt(Pi) * n^(3/2) * 2^(3*n + 5/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Nov 13 2021
