[sum(binomial(k, n-k-1)*catalan_number(k) for k in (0..n-1)) for n in (0..30)] # G. C. Greubel, May 30 2022
Formula
a(n) + a(n-1) = A025227(n).
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..floor((n-1)/2)} (2*n-2-2*k)!/(k!*(n-k)!*(n-1-2*k)!). - Emeric Deutsch, Nov 14 2001
D-finite with recurrence: n*a(n) = (3*n-6)*a(n-1) + (8*n-18)*a(n-2) + (4*n-12)*a(n-3), n>2. a(1)=a(2)=1.
a(n) = b(1)*a(n-1) + b(2)*a(n-2) + ... + b(n-1)*a(1) for n>1 where b(n)=A025227(n).
G.f.: A(x) = x/(1-(1+x)*A(x)). - Paul D. Hanna, Aug 16 2002
G.f.: A(x) = x/(1-z/(1-z/(1-z/(...)))) where z=x+x^2 (continued fraction). - Paul D. Hanna, Aug 16 2002; revised by Joerg Arndt, Mar 18 2011
a(n+1) = Sum_{k=0..n} Catalan(k)*binomial(k, n-k). - Paul Barry, Feb 22 2005
From Paul Barry, Mar 14 2006: (Start)
G.f. is x*c(x*(1+x)) where c(x) is the g.f. of A000108.
Row sums of A117434. (End)
a(n+1) = (1/(2*Pi))*Integral_{x=2-2*sqrt(2)..2+2*sqrt(2)} x^n*(4+4x-x^2)/(2*(1+x)). - Paul Barry, Apr 01 2007
From Gary W. Adamson, Jul 22 2011: (Start)
For n>0, a(n) is the upper left term in M^(n-1), where M is an infinite square production matrix as follows:
1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, ...
2, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, ...
2, 2, 1, 1, 0, 0, ...
2, 2, 2, 1, 1, 0, ...
2, 2, 2, 2, 1, 1, ...
... (End)
G.f.: x*Q(0), where Q(k) = 1 + (4*k+1)*x*(1+x)/(k+1 - x*(1+x)*(2*k+2)*(4*k+3)/(2*x*(1+x)*(4*k+3) + (2*k+3)/Q(k+1))); (continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, May 14 2013
a(n) ~ sqrt(2-sqrt(2))*2^(n-1/2)*(1+sqrt(2))^(n-1)/(n^(3/2)*sqrt(Pi)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jun 29 2013
a(n+1) = Sum_{k=0..floor(n/2)} A085880(n-k,k). - Philippe Deléham, Nov 15 2013
