FORMULA
G.f.: 26*(11+3x)*x^10/(1-x)^15.
a(n) = C(n+1, 11)*C(n+3, 3). - Zerinvary Lajos, May 10 2005; corrected by R. J. Mathar, Mar 16 2016
From Amiram Eldar, Feb 02 2022: (Start)
Sum_{n>=10} 1/a(n) = 11*Pi^2/2 - 631938577/11642400.
Sum_{n>=10} (-1)^n/a(n) = 11*Pi^2/4 + 69632*log(2)/105 - 5667600943/11642400. (End)
