Erdős, Graham et al. conjectured that a(n) is never squarefree for sufficiently large n (cf. Graham, Knuth, Patashnik, Concrete Math., 2nd ed., Exercise 112). Sárközy showed that if s(n) is the square part of a(n), then s(n) is asymptotically (sqrt(2)-2) * (sqrt(n)) * zeta(1/2). Granville and Ramare proved that the only squarefree values are a(1)=2, a(2)=6 and a(4)=70. - Jonathan Vos Post, Dec 04 2004 [For more about this conjecture, see A261009. - N. J. A. Sloane, Oct 25 2015]
The MathOverflow link contains the following comment (slightly edited): The Erdős squarefree conjecture (that a(n) is never squarefree for n>4) was proved in 1980 by Sárközy, A. (On divisors of binomial coefficients. I. J. Number Theory 20 (1985), no. 1, 70-80.) who showed that the conjecture holds for all sufficiently large values of n, and by A. Granville and O. Ramaré (Explicit bounds on exponential sums and the scarcity of squarefree binomial coefficients. Mathematika 43 (1996), no. 1, 73-107) who showed that it holds for all n>4. - Fedor Petrov, Nov 13 2010. [From N. J. A. Sloane, Oct 29 2015]

Also, in sports, the number of ordered ways for a "Best of 2n-1 Series" to progress. For example, a(2) = 6 means there are six ordered ways for a "best of 3" series to progress. If we write A for a win by "team A" and B for a win by "team B" and if we list the played games chronologically from left to right then the six ways are AA, ABA, BAA, BB, BAB, and ABB. (Proof: To generate the a(n) ordered ways: Write down all a(n) ways to designate n of 2n games as won by team A. Remove the maximal suffix of identical letters from each of these.) - Lee A. Newberg, Jun 02 2009

From Pascal's triangle take row(n) with terms in order a1,a2,..a(n) and row(n+1) with terms b1,b2,..b(n), then 2*(a1*b1 + a2*b2 + ... + a(n)*b(n)) to get the terms in this sequence. - J. M. Bergot, Oct 07 2012. For example using rows 4 and 5: 2*(1*(1) + 4*(5) + 6*(10) + 4*(10) + 1*(5)) = 252, the sixth term in this sequence.
Take from Pascal's triangle row(n) with terms b1, b2, ..., b(n+1) and row(n+2) with terms c1, c2, ..., c(n+3) and find the sum b1*c2 + b2*c3 + ... + b(n+1)*c(n+2) to get A000984(n+1).  Example using row(3) and row(5) gives sum 1*(5)+3*(10)+3*(10)+1*(5) = 70 = A000984(4). - J. M. Bergot, Oct 31 2012

Expansion of  G.f. A(x) = 1/(1+q*x*c(x)), where parameter q is positive or negative (except q=-1), and c(x) is the g.f. of A000108 for Catalan numbers. The case of q=-1 recovers the g.f. of A000108 as xA^2-A+1=0. The present sequence A000984 refers to q=-2. Recurrence: (1+q)*(n+2)*a(n+2) + ((q*q-4*q-4)*n + 2*(q*q-q-1))*a(n+1) - 2*q*q*(2*n+1)*a(n) = 0, a(0)=1, a(1)=-q. Asymptotics: a(n) ~ ((q+2)/(q+1))*(q^2/(-q-1))^n, q<=-3, a(n) ~ (-1)^n*((q+2)/(q+1))*(q^2/(q+1))^n, q>=5, and a(n) ~ -Kq*2^(2*n)/sqrt(Pi*n^3), where the multiplicative constant Kq is given by K1=1/9 (q=1), K2=1/8 (q=2), K3=3/25 (q=3), K4=1/9 (q=4). These formulas apply to existing sequences A126983 (q=1), A126984 (q=2), A126982 (q=3), A126986 (q=4), A126987 (q=5), A127017 (q=6), A127016 (q=7), A126985 (q=8), A127053 (q=9), and to A007854 (q=-3), A076035 (q=-4), A076036 (q=-5), A127628 (q=-6), A126694 (q=-7), A115970 (q=-8). (End)
a(n)*(2^n)^(j-2) equals S(n), where S(n) is the n-th number in the self-convolved sequence which yields the powers of 2^j for all integers j, n>=0. For example, when n=5 and j=4, a(5)=252; 252*(2^5)^(4-2) = 252*1024 = 258048.  The self-convolved sequence which yields powers of 16 is {1, 8, 96, 1280, 17920, 258048, ...}; i.e., S(5) = 258048. Note that the convolved sequences will be composed of numbers decreasing from 1 to 0, when j<2 (exception being j=1, where the first two numbers in the sequence are 1 and all others decreasing). - Bob Selcoe, Jul 16 2014

Let V(n, r) denote the volume of an n-dimensional sphere with radius r, then V(n, 2^n) / Pi = V(n-1, 2^n) * a(n/2) for all even n. - Peter Luschny, Oct 12 2015
a(n) is the number of sets {i1,...,in} of length n such that n >= i1 >= i2 >= ... >= in >= 0. For instance, a(2) = 6 as there are only 6 such sets: (2,2) (2,1) (2,0) (1,1) (1,0) (0,0). - Anton Zakharov, Jul 04 2016

All binary self-dual codes of length 4n, for n>0, must contain at least a(n) codewords of weight 2n.  More to the point, there will always be at least one, perhaps unique, binary self-dual code of length 4n that will contain exactly a(n) codewords that have a hamming weight equal to half the length of the code (2n). This code can be constructed by direct summing the unique binary self-dual code of length 2 (up to permutation equivalence) to itself an even number of times. A permutation equivalent code can be constructed by augmenting two identity matrices of length 2n together. - Nathan J. Russell, Nov 25 2018

Let [b/p] denote the Legendre symbol and 1/b denote the inverse of b mod p. Then, for m and n, where n is not divisible by p,
[(m+n)/p] == [n/p]*Sum_{k=0..(p-1)/2} (-m/(4*n))^k * a(k) (mod p).
Evaluating this identity for m = -1 and n = 1 demonstrates that, for all odd primes p, Sum_{k=0..(p-1)/2} (1/4)^k * a(k) is divisible by p. (End)

a(n) is the number of nx2 Young tableaux with a single horizontal wall between the first and second column. If there is a wall between two cells, the entries may be decreasing; see [Banderier, Wallner 2021].

a(n)/4^n is the probability that a fair coin tossed 2n times will come up heads exactly n times and tails exactly n times, or that a random walk with steps of +-1 will return to the starting point after 2n steps (not necessarily for the first time). As n becomes large, this number asymptotically approaches 1/sqrt(n*Pi), using Stirling's approximation for n!.
a(n)/(4^n*(2n-1)) is the probability that a random walk with steps of +-1 will return to the starting point for the first time after 2n steps. The absolute value of the n-th term of A144704 is denominator of this fraction.
Considering all possible random walks of exactly 2n steps with steps of +-1, a(n)/(2n-1) is the number of such walks that return to the starting point for the first time after 2n steps. See the absolute values of A002420 or A284016 for these numbers. For comparison, as mentioned by Stefan Hollos, Dec 10 2007, a(n) is the number of such walks that return to the starting point after 2n steps, but not necessarily for the first time. (End)

Rayes et al. prove that the a(n)-th Chebyshev-T polynomial, divided by x, is irreducible over the integers.
Odd primes can be written as a sum of no more than two consecutive positive integers. Powers of 2 do not have a representation as a sum of k consecutive positive integers (other than the trivial n=n, for k=1). See A111774. - Jaap Spies, Jan 04 2007

Odd prime p divides some (2^k + 1) or (2^k - 1), (k>0, minimal, cf. A003558) depending on the parity of A179480((p+1)/2) = r. This is a consequence of the Quasi-order theorem and corollaries, [Hilton and Pederson, pp. 260-264]: 2^k == (-1)^r mod b, b odd; and b divides 2^k - (-1)^r, where p is a subset of b. - Gary W. Adamson, Aug 26 2012
Subset of the arithmetic numbers (A003601). - Wesley Ivan Hurt, Sep 27 2013
Odd primes p satisfy the identity: p = (product(2*cos((2*k+1)*Pi/(2*p)), k=0..(p-3)/2))^2.  This follows from C(2*p, 0) = (-1)^((p-1)/2)*p, n>=2, with the minimal polynomial C(k,x) of rho(k) := 2*cos(Pi/k). See A187360 for C and the W. Lang link on the field Q(rho(n)), eqs.

In a widely distributed May 2011 email, Wadim Zudilin gave a rebuttal to v1 of Kim's 2011 preprint: "The mistake (unfixable) is on p. 6, line after eq. (3.3). 'Without loss of generality' can be shown to work only for a finite set of n_k's; as the n_k are sufficiently large (and N is fixed), the inequality for epsilon is false." In a May 2013 email, Zudilin extended his rebuttal to cover v2, concluding that Kim's argument "implies that at least one of zeta(2), zeta(3), zeta(4) and zeta(5) is irrational, which is trivial." - Jonathan Sondow, May 06 2013

For values of k see A024898.
Also primes p such that p^q - 2 is not prime where q is an odd prime. These numbers cannot be prime because the binomial p^q = (6k-1)^q expands to 6h-1 some h. Then p^q-2 = 6h-1-2 is divisible by 3 thus not prime. - Cino Hilliard, Nov 12 2008
a(n) = A211890(3,n-1) for n <= 4. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jul 13 2012
There exists a polygonal number P_s(3) = 3s - 3 = a(n) + 1. These are the only primes p with P_s(k) = p + 1, s >= 3, k >= 3, since P_s(k) - 1 is composite for k > 3. - Ralf Steiner, May 17 2018
From Bernard Schott, Feb 14 2019: (Start)
A theorem due to Andrzej Mąkowski: every integer greater than 161 is the sum of distinct primes of the form 6k-1. Examples: 162 = 5 + 11 + 17 + 23 + 47 + 59; 163 = 17 + 23 + 29 + 41 + 53. (See Sierpiński and David Wells.)
{2,3} Union A002476 Union {this sequence} = A000040.
Except for 2 and 3, all Sophie Germain primes are of the form 6k-1.
Except for 3, all the lesser of twin primes are also of the form 6k-1.
Dirichlet's theorem on arithmetic progressions states that this sequence is infinite. (End)
For all elements of this sequence p=6*k-1, there are no (x,y) positive integers such that k=6*x*y-x+y. - Pedro Caceres, Apr 06 2019
