Formula

D-finite with recurrence: a(1)=0, a(2)=0, a(4)=0, a(3)=0, a(5)=120, a(6)=2880, (n+2)*a(n+2) = (6*n^2 + 8*n - 8)*a(n+1) + (40 + 44*n = 4*n^2 - 8*n^3)*a(n).

a(n) = 2*Pi^(-1/2)*4^(n-3)*Gamma(n-5/2)*n*(n-4) for n>3. - Mark van Hoeij, Oct 30 2011

a(n) = n!*A002057(n-5). - R. J. Mathar, Oct 18 2013

From G. C. Greubel, May 28 2022: (Start)

G.f.: 4!*x*(d/dx)( x^5 * Hypergeometric2F0([2, 5/2], [], 4*x) ).

E.g.f.: (x/2)*(1 - 4*x + 2*x^2 - (1-2*x)*sqrt(1-4*x)). (End)
