Le proved that this also gives the number of permutations of length n that avoid both 1342 and 3124.
For n>=1, a(n) is the number of paths of North steps N = (0,1), East steps E = (1,0), and Diagonal steps D = (1,1) from the origin to (n-1,n-1) such that all D steps lie on the diagonal line y = x and the first step away from the diagonal (if there is one) is a North step. For example, a(3) = 6 counts DD, DNE, NED, NENE, NEEN, NNEE. - David Callan, Jun 25 2013

Formula

From Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 24 2012: (Start)
G.f.: (3*x^2-9*x+2+x*(1-x)*sqrt(1-4*x))/(2*(x-1)*(x^2+4*x-1)).
Recurrence: (n-4)*(n-1)*a(n) = (9*n^2 - 51*n + 62)*a(n-1) - (23*n^2 - 145*n + 222)*a(n-2) + (11*n^2 - 73*n + 122)*a(n-3) + 2*(n-3)*(2*n-7)*a(n-4).
a(n) ~ (1/2-1/sqrt(5))*(sqrt(5)+2)^n. (End)
These formulas were conjectured by Vaclav Kotesovec and proved correct by David Callan (see Link).
a(n) = (A026671(n-1) + 1)/2 for n >= 1. - David Callan, Jun 25 2013
a(n-1) = Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(n, k)*A358092(k) for n >= 1. - Peter Luschny, Oct 29 2022
