This sequence is the third diagonal below the main diagonal (which itself is A026641) in the array which grows with "Pascal rule" given here by rows:
1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0,
1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,
1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 7,
1, 2, 4, 6, 9, 12, 16, 20, 25, 30,
1, 3, 7, 13, 22, 34, 50, 70, 95.
The Maple programs give the first diagonals of this array.
Apparently the number of peaks in all Dyck paths of semilength n+3 that are 1 step higher than the preceding peak. - David Scambler, Apr 22 2013

FORMULA
|
G.f.: (2/(3*sqrt(1-4*x)-1+4*x))*((1-sqrt(1-4*x))/(2*x))^k with k=3.
a(n) = Sum_{p=0..n} (-1)^(p)*binomial(2*n+k-p,n-p), with k=3.
a(n) ~ 2^(2*n+4)/(3*sqrt(Pi*n)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Apr 19 2014
Conjecture: 2*n*(n+3)*a(n) + (-7*n^2 - 17*n - 8)*a(n-1) -2*(n+2)*(2*n+1)*a(n-2) = 0. - R. J. Mathar, Feb 19 2016
a(n) = [x^n] 1/((1 - x^2)*(1 - x)^(n+3)). - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Oct 25 2017

EXAMPLE

a(4) = C(11,4) - C(10,3) + C(9,2) - C(8,1) + C(7,0) = 330 - 120 + 36 - 8 + 1 = 239.
