PARI

{a(n)=polcoeff((1 - sqrt(1 - 4*x*(1-x)/(1-3*x+3*x^2+x*O(x^n)) ))/2, n)}

Formula

G.f.: A(x) = (1 - sqrt(1 - 4*x*(1-x)/(1-3*x+3*x^2) ))/2.

Recurrence: n*a(n) = 2*(5*n-6)*a(n-1) - (31*n-66)*a(n-2) + 42*(n-3)*a(n-3) - 21*(n-4)*a(n-4). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 24 2012

a(n) ~ sqrt(14*sqrt(21)-42)*((7+sqrt(21))/2)^n/(16*sqrt(Pi)*n^(3/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 24 2012
