Table of n, a(n) for n=0..19.

Formula

a(n) = [x^n] ( (1+x)^3/(1-x)^2 )^n.

The g.f. exp( Sum_{k>=1} a(k) * x^k/k ) has integer coefficients and equals (1/x) * Series_Reversion( x*(1-x)^2/(1+x)^3 ). See A365842.

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} 2^k * (-1)^(n-k) * binomial(3*n,k). - Seiichi Manyama, Jul 31 2025

a(n) ~ 3^(3*n + 1/2) / (5 * sqrt(Pi*n) * 2^(n-1)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jul 31 2025
