Conjecture: a(n) is the permanent of the n X n matrix whose generic element is given by M_{i,j} = 1 if i = j or i + j = 1 (mod 2), with i,j in [n].
FORMULA
a(n) = A006040((n+1)/2) for odd n.
a(n) = A228229(n/2) for even n.
MATHEMATICA
A006040[n_]:=Sum[(n!/(n - k)!)^2, {k, 0, n}]; A228229[n_]:= n!*(n + 1)!*Sum[ 1/(k!*(k + 1)!), {k, 0, n}]; a[n_]:=If[OddQ[n], A006040[(n+1)/2], A228229[n/2]]; Array[a, 26, 0]
