Vincenzo Librandi, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..300

Formula

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..floor(n/2)} 2^(n-2k)*C(2n-2k,n-2k).

D-finite with recurrence: 3*n*(15*n-22)*a(n) = 4*(75*n^2-155*n+63)*a(n-1) + (465*n^2-922*n+336)*a(n-2) + 4*(2*n-3)*(15*n-7)*a(n-3) . - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 20 2012

a(n) ~ 2^(3*n+4)/(15*sqrt(Pi*n)) . - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 20 2012
