FORMULA
G.f.: 4/(3-5*x+sqrt(1-6*x+x^2)).
Recurrence: n*a(n) = 9*(n-1)*a(n-1) - 2*(11*n-15)*a(n-2) + 3*(7*n-12)*a(n-3) - 3*(n-3)*a(n-4). - Vaclav Kotesovec, May 23 2013
a(n) ~ sqrt(884+627*sqrt(2)) * (3+2*sqrt(2))^n / (98*sqrt(Pi)*n^(3/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, May 23 2013
0 = +a(n)*(+9*a(n+1) - 144*a(n+2) + 174*a(n+3) - 81*a(n+4) + 12*a(n+5)) + a(n+1)*(+18*a(n+1) + 399*a(n+2) - 597*a(n+3) + 318*a(n+4) - 57*a(n+5)) + a(n+2)*(-300*a(n+2) + 538*a(n+3) - 255*a(n+4) + 52*a(n+5)) + a(n+3)*(-126*a(n+3) + 73*a(n+4) - 18*a(n+5)) + a(n+4)*(+a(n+5)) if n>=0. - Michael Somos, Mar 28 2014
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n}((k+1)*((-1)^floor((k+2)/3)+(-1)^floor((k+1)/3))*Sum_{i=0..n-k}(binomial(n+1,n-k-i)*binomial(n+i,n)))/(2*(n+1)). - Vladimir Kruchinin, Mar 08 2016
EXAMPLE
a(2) = 5 because we have HH, UDH, HUD, UDUD and UUDD.
G.f. = 1 + 2*x + 5*x^2 + 15*x^3 + 52*x^4 + 201*x^5 + 841*x^6 + ...
