Formula

a(n) = (n/6)*binomial(2n, n)^4+(n/2)*binomial(2n, n)^2+(2/3)*delta(3|(2n+1))* binomial(2*floor(n/3), floor(n/3))*binomial(2n, n) where delta(3|(2n+1))=1 if 3|(2n+1) and =0 otherwise.

Mathematica

a[n_] := (n/6) Binomial[2n, n]^4 + (n/2) Binomial[2n, n]^2 + (2/3) Boole[ Divisible[2n+1, 3]] Binomial[2 Floor[n/3], Floor[n/3]] Binomial[2n, n];
