FORMULA
a(n) = Sum_{i = -n..n} (-1)^i * binomial(2*n, n+i)^2 * binomial(6*n, 3*n+i).
Compare with Dixon's identity: Sum_{i = -n..n} (-1)^i * binomial(2*n, n+i)^3 = (3*n)!/n!^3.
a(n) = (-1)^n*binomial(6*n,2*n) * hypergeom([-2*n, -2*n, -4*n], [1, 2*n+1], 1).
P-recursive: a(n) = (15/4)*(5*n-1)*(5*n-2)*(5*n-3)*(5*n-4)*(6*n-1)*(6*n-5)/((4*n-1)^2*(4*n-3)^2*n^2) * a(n-1) with a(0) = 1.
a(n) ~ c^n * sqrt(5)/(4*Pi*n), where c = (3^3)*(5^5)/(2^8).
a(n) = [x^n] G(x)^(10*n), where the power series G(x) = 1 + 5*x + 208*x^2 + 19960*x^3 + 2580710*x^4 + 390721786*x^5 + 65243160516*x^6 + 11646611942100*x^7 + 2182248792056787*x^8 + ... appears to have integer coefficients.
exp( Sum_{n > = 1} a(n)*x^n/n ) = F(x)^10, where the power series F(x) = 1 + 5*x + 458*x^2 + 69285*x^3 + 13037740*x^4 + 2773287786*x^5 + 638122182196*x^6 + 155077758079485*x^7 + 39234250338228617*x^8 + ... appears to have integer coefficients.
Conjecture: the supercongruences a(n*p^r) == a(n*p^(r-1)) (mod p^(3^r)) hold for all primes p >= 5 and all positive integers n and r [added Oct 11 2024: follows from Meštrović, Section 6, equation 39, since a(n) = binomial(6*n, 3*n)*binomial(5*n, n)* binomial(2*n, n)/binomial(4*n, n)].
a(n) = (-1)^n * [x^(4*n)] (1 - x)^(8*n)*Legendre_P(2*n, (1 + x)/(1 - x)). - Peter Bala, Aug 14 2023
