Formula

G.f. A(x) satisfies: A(x) = 1 / (1 + x) + 2*x*A(x)^2.

G.f.: (1 - sqrt(1 - 8*x / (1 + x))) / (4*x).

E.g.f.: exp(3*x) * (BesselI(0,4*x) - BesselI(1,4*x)).

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} (-1)^(n-k) * binomial(n,k) * 2^k * Catalan(k).

a(n) ~ 7^(n + 3/2) / (2^(9/2) * sqrt(Pi) * n^(3/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Nov 13 2021
