This is a sequence of power moments of the following signed function defined on the segment (0,256/27), in Maple notation:

-(1/2)*sqrt(2)*x^(1/4)*hypergeom([-5/12, -1/12, 5/4], [1/2, 3/4], (27/256)*x)/Pi+(5/4)*sqrt(x)*hypergeom([-1/6, 1/6, 3/2], [3/4, 5/4], (27/256)*x)/Pi-(15/64)*sqrt(2)*x^(3/4)*hypergeom([1/12, 5/12, 7/4], [5/4, 3/2], (27/256)*x)/Pi. This function is not positive on (0,256/27).

The two parameter Fuss-Catalan sequence is A(n,p,r) := r*binomial(n*p + r, n)/(n*p + r). This sequence is A(n,4,5). - Peter Bala, Oct 16 2015

From _Peter Bala, Oct 16 2015: (Start)

O.g.f. A(x) = 1/x * series reversion (x*C(-x)^5), where C(x) = (1 - sqrt(1 - 4*x))/(2*x) is the o.g.f. for the Catalan numbers A000108. See cross-references for other Fuss-Catalan sequences with o.g.f. 1/x * series reversion (x*C(-x)^k), k = 3 through 11.

A(x)^(1/5) is the o.g.f. for A002293. (End)

D-finite with recurrence 3*n*(3*n+5)*(3*n+4)*a(n) -8*(4*n+1)*(2*n+1)*(4*n+3)*a(n-1)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Aug 01 2022
