Formula

a(n) = (1/480)*( n*(n+1)*(93*n^3 + 132*n^2 + 53*n - 38)*4^n - 4*n*(n-1)*(15*n^5 - 99*n^3 + 116*n^2 - 34*n + 6)*binomial(2*n, n)/((2*n-1)*(2*n-3)). (See Wang and Zhang, p. 338.)

From G. C. Greubel, May 25 2022: (Start)

a(n) = (1/30)*( n*(n+1)*93*n^3 + 132*n^2 + 53*n -38)*4^(n-2) - (n-1)*(15*n^5 - 99*n^3 + 116*n^2 - 34*n + 6)*Catalan(n-2) ).

G.f.: x*( 4*(1 + 43*x + 160*x^2 + 96*x^3) - x*(3 + 62*x - 72*x^2 + 96*x^3 - 224*x^4 + 144*x^5)*sqrt(1-4*x) )/(1-4*x)^6. [Typo corrected by Georg Fischer, Nov 09 2022] (End)
