FORMULA
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} (binomial(n,k)*binomial(2n+k,k)).
Recurrence: 20*n*(2*n - 1)*a(n) = (371*n^2 - 411*n + 120)*a(n-1) -2*(81*n^2 - 299*n + 278)*a(n-2) + 4*(n-2)*(2*n-5)*a(n-3). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 19 2012
a(n) ~ sqrt(1734 + 442*sqrt(17))*((71 + 17*sqrt(17))/16)^n/(68*sqrt(Pi*n)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 19 2012
From Peter Bala, Oct 05 2015: (Start)
a(n) = Sum_{i = 0..n} 2^(n-i)*binomial(2*n,i)*binomial(n,i).
4*n*(2*n - 1)*(17*n - 23)*a(n) = (1207*n^3 - 2840*n^2 + 1897*n - 360)*a(n-1) - 2*(n - 1)*(17*n - 6)*(2*n - 3)*a(n-2) with a(0) = 1 and a(1) = 4.
1 + x*exp( Sum_{n >= 1} a(n)*x^n/n ) = 1 + x + 4*x^2 + 21*x^3 + 126*x^4 + ... is the o.g.f. for A003168. (End)
