Table of n, a(n) for n=0..18.

Nachum Dershowitz, Touchard's Drunkard, Journal of Integer Sequences, Vol. 20 (2017), #17.1.5.

Formula

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..2*n} binomial(2*n, k) * A005558(k) * A126869(2*n-k). - Mélika Tebni, Nov 06 2024

Maple

C := n-> binomial(2*n, n)/(n+1): # Catalan numbers
A302181 := n-> add(binomial(2*n, k)*C(iquo(k+1, 2))*C(iquo(k, 2))*(2*iquo(k, 2)+1)*add((-1)^(k+j)*binomial(2*n-k, iquo(j, 2)), j=0..2*n-k), k=0..2*n): seq(A302181(n), n = 0 .. 18); # Mélika Tebni, Nov 06 2024
