Table of n, a(n) for n=1..25.

Formula

G.f.: (1-sqrt(1-8*x+12*x^2+12*x^3))/2. - Michael Somos, Jun 08 2000

Recurrence: n*a(n) = 4*(2*n-3)*a(n-1) - 12*(n-3)*a(n-2) - 6*(2*n-9)*a(n-3). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jan 25 2015

Mathematica

nmax = 30; aa = ConstantArray[0, nmax]; aa[[1]] = 2; aa[[2]] = 1; aa[[3]] = 1; Do[aa[[n]] = Sum[aa[[k]] * aa[[n-k]], {k, 1, n-1}], {n, 4, nmax}]; aa (* Vaclav Kotesovec, Jan 25 2015 *)
