Formula
G.f.: 24*x*(-23 - 26*x + x^2)/(x-1)^3.
a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 3*a(n-2) + a(n-3).
From Amiram Eldar, Mar 19 2023: (Start)
Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = (1 - cot(Pi/(2*sqrt(6)))*Pi/(2*sqrt(6)))/48.
Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = (cosec(Pi/(2*sqrt(6)))*Pi/(2*sqrt(6)) - 1)/48. (End)
From Elmo R. Oliveira, Jan 16 2025: (Start)
E.g.f.: 24*(exp(x)*(24*x^2 + 24*x - 1) + 1).
a(n) = 24*A158544(n). (End)
