FORMULA
Theorem 3.3 gives an explicit formula.
From Vaclav Kotesovec, Dec 30 2022: (Start)
Recurrence: (n-3)*(n-2)*(n-1)*n*(n+1)*a(n) = 12*(n-3)*(n-2)*(n-1)*(108*n^2 - 432*n + 505)*a(n-2) - 576*(n-3)*(3*n - 10)*(3*n - 8)*(108*n^2 - 648*n + 1049)*a(n-4) + 995328*(n-4)*(3*n - 16)*(3*n - 14)*(3*n - 10)*(3*n - 8)*a(n-6).
a(n) ~ Gamma(1/4) * 2^(2*n - 5/4) * 3^(3*n/2 + 5/4) / (Pi * n^(5/4)) * (1 - 2^(7/4)*sqrt(Pi)/(Gamma(1/4)*3^(3/4)*n^(1/4)) + Pi/(Gamma(1/4)^2*sqrt(3*n))).
