Binomial transform of A100098.
Inverse binomial transform of A007854. The Hankel transform of this sequence is 3^n (see A000244). - Philippe Deléham, Nov 25 2007
FORMULA
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} A026300(n, k)*(2^(k+1) + (-1)^k)/3, where A026300 is the Motzkin triangle; a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} ((k+1)/(n+1))*Sum_{j=0..n+1} C(n+1, j)*C(j, 2j-n+k)*(2^(k+1) + (-1)^k)/3.
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} A089942(n,k)*2^k = Sum_{k=0..n} A071947(n,k)*2^(n-k). - Philippe Deléham, Mar 31 2007
