Formula

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

Conjecture: (n+1)*a(n) + (-8*n+1)*a(n-1) + 3*(7*n-8)*a(n-2) + (-23*n+49)*a(n-3) + (13*n-32)*a(n-4) + 2*(-2*n+7)*a(n-5) = 0. - R. J. Mathar, Feb 29 2016

a(n) = Sum_{j=0..n} A034943(j+1)*A000108(n-j). - G. C. Greubel, Apr 19 2021
