%F G.f.: 2*(1-x)/(1 - 2*x + x^3 + sqrt(1 - 4*x + 4*x^2 - 2*x^3 + x^6)).

%F D-finite with Recurrence: (n+3)*a(n) = 2*(2*n+3)*a(n-1) - 4*n*a(n-2) + (2*n-3)*a(n-3) - (n-6)*a(n-6).

%F a(n) ~ (6*r^2+14*r+17) * sqrt(7*r-2) / (2 * sqrt(Pi) * n^(3/2) * r^(n-1/2)), where r = 1/3*(-2 - 2*(2/(47 + 3*sqrt(249)))^(1/3) + (1/2*(47 + 3*sqrt(249)))^(1/3)) = 0.3532099641993244294831... is the root of the equation r^3 + 2*r^2 + 2*r = 1.
