%F From _Peter Bala_, Apr 20 2018: (Start)

%F a(n) = Sum_{k = 0..floor((n-1)/2))} (-3)^k*binomial(n-k,k+1)*binomial(n-k-1,k)*(n-2*k-1)!.

%F a(n)/n! ~ BesselJ(1, 2*sqrt(3)) / sqrt(3). (End)

%F a(n) = -2 * i^n * 3^(n/2) * (BesselI(1+n, -2*i*sqrt(3)) * BesselK(1,-2*i*sqrt(3)) + (-1)^n * BesselI(1, 2*i*sqrt(3)) * BesselK(1+n, -2*i*sqrt(3))), where i is the imaginary unit. - _Vaclav Kotesovec_, Apr 20 2018
