%C 1, 1, 3, 11, 43, 173, ... is the unique sequence for which both the Hankel transform of the sequence itself and the Hankel transform of its left shift are the powers of 2 (A000079). For example, det[{{1, 1, 3}, {1, 3, 11}, {3, 11, 43}}] = det[{{1, 3, 11}, {3, 11, 43}, {11, 43, 173}}] = 4. - _David Callan_, Mar 30 2007

%C From _Paul Barry_, Jan 25 2009: (Start)

%C a(n) is the image of F(2n+2) under the Catalan matrix (1,xc(x)) where c(x) is the g.f. of A000108.

%C The sequence 1,1,3,... is the image of A001519 under (1,xc(x)). This sequence has g.f. given by 1/(1-x-2x^2/(1-3x-x^2/(1-2x-x^2/(1-2x-x^2/(1-... (continued fraction). (End)

%C Binomial transform of A111961. - _Philippe Deléham_, Feb 11 2009

%C From _Paul Barry_, Nov 03 2010: (Start)

%C The sequence 1,1,3,... has g.f. 1/(1-x/sqrt(1-4x)), INVERT transform of A000984.

%C It is an eigensequence of the sequence array for A000984. (End)
