%F From _Peter Bala_, Nov 04 2015: (Start)

%F With offset 0, the o.g.f. equals f(x)*g(x)^3, where f(x) is the o.g.f. for A005809 and g(x) is the o.g.f. for A001764. More generally, f(x)*g(x)^k is the o.g.f. for the sequence binomial(3*n + k, n). See the cross-references. (End)

%F G.f.: cos(t)/(2*sqrt(1 - (27*x)/4)) - sin(t)/(sqrt(3)*sqrt(x)), where t = arcsin((sqrt(27*x))/2)/3. - _Vladimir Kruchinin_, May 13 2016

%F a(n) = [x^(2*n+1)] 1/(1 - x)^n. - _Ilya Gutkovskiy_, Oct 10 2017
