COMMENTS
See the comment under A187357 for the o.g.f.s of the general trisection of a sequence.
The sequence C(3*n+2) starts as 2, 42, 1430, 58786, 2674440, 129644790, 6564120420, 343059613650, ...
FORMULA
a(n) = C(3*n+2)/2, n>=0, with C(n) = A000108(n).
O.g.f.: (3 - sqrt(1 - 4*x^(1/3)) - sqrt(2)*sqrt(sqrt(1 + 4*x^(1/3) + 16*x^(2/3)) +
(1 + 2*x^(1/3))))/(12*x).
From Ilya Gutkovskiy, Jan 21 2017: (Start)
E.g.f.: 3F3(5/6,7/6,3/2; 4/3,5/3,2; 64*x).
a(n) ~ 8^(2*n+1)/(3*sqrt(3*Pi)*n^(3/2)). (End)
Sum_{n>=0} a(n)/4^n = 1 - sqrt(3+2*sqrt(3))/3. - Amiram Eldar, Mar 16 2022
a(n) = (1/2)*Product_{1 <= i <= j <= 3*n+1} (3*i + j + 2)/(3*i + j - 1). - Peter Bala, Feb 22 2023
