Seiichi Manyama, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..887
FORMULA
a(n) = 4^n + 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,2*k) * binomial(3*k,k) * 4^(n-k) / (2*k+1).
a(n) = 4^n*F([1/3, 2/3, -n, 1+n], [1/2, 1, 3/2], -3^3/2^6), where F is the generalized hypergeometric function. - Stefano Spezia, Nov 21 2021
a(n) ~ 273^(1/4) * (59 + 3*sqrt(273))^(n + 1/2) / (9 * sqrt(Pi) * n^(3/2) * 2^(3*n + 5/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Nov 22 2021
