%N Number of equicolorable rooted trees on 2n nodes.

%C For precise definition, recurrence and asymptotics see the Pippenger reference.

%C An equicolorable tree is a tree which can be colored with two colors with adjacent nodes having different colors and there being an equal number of nodes of each color. - _Andrew Howroyd_, May 21 2018
