COMMENTS
This sequence is the 7th 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+7 that are 5 steps higher than the preceding peak. - David Scambler, Apr 22 2013

FORMULA
a(n) = Sum_{j=0..n} (-1)^j * binomial(2*n+k-j, n-j), with k=7.
a(n) ~ 2^(2*n+8)/(3*sqrt(Pi*n)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Apr 19 2014
Conjecture: 2*n*(n+7)*(3*n+11)*a(n) -(21*n^3+212*n^2+719*n+840)*a(n-1) -2*(2*n+5)*(n+3)*(3*n+14)*a(n-2)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Feb 19 2016
EXAMPLE
a(4) = C(15,4) - C(14,3) + C(13,2) - C(12,1) + C(11,0) = 7*13*15 - 14*13*2 + 78 - 12 + 1 = 1068.
MAPLE
for k from 0 to 20 do for n from 0 to 40 do a(n):=sum('(-1)^(p)*binomial(2*n-p+k, n-p)', p=0..n): od:seq(a(n), n=0..40):od;
# 2nd program
for k from 0 to 40 do taylor((2/(3*sqrt(1-4*z)-1+4*z))*((1-sqrt(1-4*z))/(2*z))^k, z=0, 40+k):od;
