Formula

E.g.f.: (1/2)*( log(1+x)/x^2-log(1-x)*(x^2+4*x-4)/(x^4-4*x^3+4*x^2)+6/(x^3-2*x^2-x+2) ).

P-recursive: 2*n*(n + 2)*(n - 2)*(3*n - 2)*a(n) = n*(n + 1)*(n + 2)*(n - 2)*(3*n - 2)*a(n-1) + 2*n^3*(n - 1)*(n - 2)*(3*n + 4)*a(n-2) - n^3*(n - 1)^2*(n - 2)*(3*n + 4)*a(n-3) with a(0) = a(1) = 1 and a(2) = 4. - Peter Bala, Apr 13 2023
