%N Transform of Catalan numbers whose Hankel transform satisfies the Somos-4 recurrence.

%C Hankel transform is A157101.

%C The ratio of this generating function by the generating function of A025262 is x*(1-x), which means this sequence is the partial sums of A025262. - _Sean A. Irvine_, _R. J. Mathar_, Jun 27 2022
