Central coefficients of (1+12*x+27*x^2)^n. In general, Jacobi_P(n,0,0,sqrt(m))(k*sqrt(m))^n = Legendre_P(n,sqrt(m))(k*sqrt(m))^n has g.f. 1/sqrt(1-2*k*m*x+k^2*x^2), e.g.f. exp(k*m*x)Bessel_I(0,k*sqrt(m(m-1))*x) and gives the central coefficients of (1+k*m*x+k^2*(m(m-1)/4)*x^2)^n.

FORMULA
G.f.: 1/sqrt(1-24*x+36*x^2).
E.g.f.: exp(12*x)*Bessel_I(0,3*sqrt(12)x).
a(n) = Jacobi_P(n,0,0,sqrt(4))*(3*sqrt(4))^n.
a(n) = 3^n*A069835(n).
D-finite with recurrence: n*a(n) +12*(1-2*n)*a(n-1) +36*(n-1)*a(n-2)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Nov 14 2011
