%C Convolution of central Delannoy numbers A001850 and little Schroeder numbers A001003. Hankel transform is 2^C(n+1,2)*A007052(n). - _Paul Barry_, Oct 07 2009

%C Define a finite triangle T(r,c) with T(r,0) = binomial(n,r) for 0 <= r <= n and the other terms recursively with T(r,c) = T(r-1,c-1) + 2*T(r,c-1). The sum of the last terms in the rows is Sum_{r=0..n} T(r,r) = a(n+1). Example: For n=4 the triangle has the rows 1; 4 9; 6 16 41; 4 14 44 129; 1 6 26 96 321 having sum of last terms 1 + 9 + 41 + 129 + 321 = 501 = a(5). - _J. M. Bergot_, Feb 15 2013
