FORMULA
D-finite with recurrence: a(1)=2, a(n+1) = 4*(2*n -1)*a(n).
a(n) = (1/4)*8^n*Gamma(n-1/2)/Pi^(1/2) for n>0.
a(n+1) = ((2*n)!/n!)*2^(n+1). - Zerinvary Lajos, Sep 25 2006
a(n) = n!*A025225(n). - R. J. Mathar, Oct 18 2013
G.f.: (1- 2F0([1,-1/2], [], 8*x))/2. - R. J. Mathar, Jan 25 2020
a(n) ~ 2^(3*n-3/2) * n^(n-1) / exp(n). - Amiram Eldar, Oct 05 2025
