%F A102557 From _Robert Israel_, Sep 29 2016: (Start)
%F A102557 a(n) is the denominator of p(n) = Sum_{k=n..2n-1} binomial(2n-1,k) 3^(2n-k)/4^(2n-1).
%F A102557 8*(n+1)*p(n+2) = (14*n+11)*p(n+1) - 3*(2*n+1)*p(n), for n >= 1, with p(0) = 0, p(1) = 3/4, and p(2) = 15/32.
%F A102557 G.f. of p(n): 3*x*(1 - 1/sqrt(4-3*x))/(2*(1-x)). (End)
