COMMENTS
B(n) is the set of lattice paths of weight n that start in (0,0), end on the horizontal axis and never go below this axis, whose steps are of the following four kinds: h = (1,0) of weight 1, H = (1,0) of weight 2, u = (1,1) of weight 2, and d = (1,-1) of weight 1. The weight of a path is the sum of the weights of its steps.
a(n) = A110320(n-3) + A110320(n-4) (n>=5).

FORMULA
G.f.: G = z^4*(1 + z)*g/(1 - z - z^2 - 2*z^3*g), where g = 1 + z*g + z^2*g + z^3*g^2.
D-finite with recurrence +(n-1)*(202*n-903)*a(n) +(-250*n^2+1095*n-691)*a(n-1) +(-510*n^2+4095*n-8039)*a(n-2) +(-558*n^2+4287*n-7831)*a(n-3) +(-106*n^2+1587*n-4575)*a(n-4) +(154*n-547)*(n-7)*a(n-5)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Jul 24 2022
EXAMPLE
a(6)=7 because among the 37 (=A004148(7)) members of B(6) only (uhd)hh, h(uhd)h, hh(uhd), H(uhd), (uhd)H, (uHd)h, and h(uHd) contain uhd or uHd (shown between parentheses).
