COMMENTS
Hankel transform is 4^binomial(n+1,2) = A053763(n+1). Case k=2 of T(n,k) = (1/Pi)*2*k^2*(2*k)^n*Integral_{x=-1..1} x^n*sqrt(1-x^2)/(1+k^2-2*k*x) dx. T(n,k) has Hankel transform (k^2)^binomial(n+1,2). k=1 corresponds to C(n,floor(n/2)).
Series reversion of x*(1+x)/(1+2*x+5*x^2).

FORMULA
G.f.: (sqrt(1-16*x^2) + 2*x - 1)/(2*x*(1-5*x)) = c(4*x^2)/(1-x*c(4*x^2)), c(x) the g.f. of A000108.
a(n) = (1/(n+1))*Sum_{k=0..n+1} Sum_{j=0..k} C(n,k)*C(k,j)*C(2*n-2*k+j, n-2*k+j)*(-1)^(n-2*k+j)*2^j*5^(k-j).
a(n) = (1/Pi)*8*4^n*Integral_{x=-1..1} x^n*sqrt(1-x^2)/(5-4*x) dx.
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..floor(n/2)} A009766(n-k,k)*2^2k. - Philippe Deléham, Aug 18 2006
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} 4^(n-k)*A120730(n,k). - Philippe Deléham, Oct 16 2008
Conjecture: (n+1)*a(n) = 5*(n+1)*a(n-1) + 16*(n-2)*a(n-2) - 80*(n-2)*a(n-3). - R. J. Mathar, Nov 26 2012
a(n) ~ (9+(-1)^n) * 2^(2*n+5/2) / (9 * sqrt(Pi) * n^(3/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Feb 13 2014
