a(n) = sum(k=0, n-1, binomial(6*k, k)*binomial(6*n-6*k-2, n-k-1));

PARI

my(N=20, x='x+O('x^N), g=x*sum(k=0, N, binomial(6*k+4, k)/(k+1)*x^k)); concat(0, Vec(g*(1-g)/(1-6*g)^2))

Formula

G.f.: g*(1-g)/(1-6*g)^2 where g*(1-g)^5 = x.

L.g.f.: Sum_{k>=1} a(k)*x^k/k = (1/6) * log( Sum_{k>=0} binomial(6*k,k)*x^k ).

G.f.: (g-1)/(6-5*g)^2 where g=1+x*g^6.

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n-1} binomial(6*k-2+l,k) * binomial(6*n-6*k-l,n-k-1) for every real number l.

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n-1} 5^(n-k-1) * binomial(6*n-1,k).

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n-1} 6^(n-k-1) * binomial(5*n+k-1,k).
