FORMULA

G.f.: x^3*C(x)^8, where C(x)=(1-sqrt(1-4*x))/(2*x) is g.f. for the Catalan numbers (A000108). - Emeric Deutsch, May 30 2004
The convolution of A002057 with itself. - Gerald McGarvey, Nov 08 2007
Let A be the Toeplitz matrix of order n defined by: A[i,i-1]=-1, A[i,j]=Catalan(j-i), (i<=j), and A[i,j]=0, otherwise. Then, for n>=7, a(n-4)=(-1)^(n-7)*coeff(charpoly(A,x),x^7). - Milan Janjic, Jul 08 2010
a(n) = A214292(2*n,n-4) for n > 3. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jul 12 2012
Integral representation as the n-th moment of the signed weight function W(x) on (0,4), i.e., in Maple notation: a(n+3) = int(x^n*W(x),x=0..4), n=0,1..., with W(x) = (1/2)*x^(7/2)*(x-2)*(x^2-4*x+2)*sqrt(4-x)/Pi. - Karol A. Penson, Oct 26 2016
From Ilya Gutkovskiy, Jan 22 2017: (Start)
E.g.f.: 4*BesselI(4,2*x)*exp(2*x)/x.
a(n) ~ 4^(n+2)/(sqrt(Pi)*n^(3/2)). (End)
D-finite with recurrence: -(n+5)*(n-3)*a(n) +2*n*(2*n+1)*a(n-1)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Feb 20 2020
From Amiram Eldar, Jan 02 2022: (Start)
Sum_{n>=3} 1/a(n) = 43*Pi/(36*sqrt(3)) - 81/80.
Sum_{n>=3} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = 6213*log(phi)/(50*sqrt(5)) - 10339/400, where phi is the golden ratio (A001622). (End)
