COMMENTS

Number of standard tableaux of shape (n+5,n-4). - Emeric Deutsch, May 30 2004

a(n) is the number of North-East paths from (0,0) to (n,n) that cross the diagonal y = x horizontally exactly twice. By symmetry, it is also the number of North-East paths from (0,0) to (n,n) that cross the diagonal y = x vertically exactly twice. Details can be found in Section 3.3 in Pan and Remmel's link. - Ran Pan, Feb 02 2016

FORMULA

G.f.: x^4*C(x)^10, where C(x)=[1-sqrt(1-4x)]/(2x) is g.f. for the Catalan numbers (A000108). - Emeric Deutsch, May 30 2004

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>=9, a(n-5)=(-1)^(n-9)*coeff(charpoly(A,x),x^9). [Milan Janjic, Jul 08 2010]

a(n) = A214292(2*n,n-5) for n > 4. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jul 12 2012

From Robert Israel, Feb 02 2016: (Start)

D-finite with recurrence a(n+1) = 2*(n+1)*(2n+3)/((n+7)*(n-3)) * a(n).

a(n) ~ 20 * 4^n/sqrt(Pi*n^3). (End)

E.g.f.: 5*BesselI(5,2*x)*exp(2*x)/x. - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Jan 23 2017

From Amiram Eldar, Jan 02 2022: (Start)

Sum_{n>=4} 1/a(n) = 34*Pi/(45*sqrt(3)) - 44/175.

Sum_{n>=4} (-1)^n/a(n) = 53004*log(phi)/(125*sqrt(5)) - 79048/875, where phi is the golden ratio (A001622). (End)
