Formula

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} A130847(n,k)*3^k. - Philippe Deléham, Jul 22 2007

G.f.: 1/(1 - 4*x/(1 - 5*x/(1 - 21*x/(1 - 22*x/(1 - 50*x/(1 - 51*x/(1 - 91*x/(1 - 92*x/(1 -...))))))))), a continued fraction involving even-indexed pentagonal numbers A000326. - Paul D. Hanna, Feb 15 2012

a(n) ~ Gamma(1/3) * 2^(3*n+7/3) * 3^(n+3/2) * n^(2*n+7/6) / (exp(2*n) * Pi^(2*n+13/6)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, May 30 2015
