a(n) is the sum of the squares of numbers in row n of array T given by A026300.
Number of closed walks of length 2n on the one-way infinite ladder graph starting from (and ending at) a node of degree 2. - Mitch Harris, Mar 06 2004
a(n) is the number of ways to connect 2n points labeled 1,2,...,2n in a line with 0 or more noncrossing arcs. For example, with arcs separated by dashes, a(2)=9 counts {} (no arcs), 12, 13, 14, 23, 24, 34, 12-34, 14-23. - David Callan, Sep 18 2007

a(n) = (2/Pi)*integral(x=-1..1, (1+2*x)^(2*n)*sqrt(1-x^2)). - Peter Luschny, Sep 11 2011
D-finite with recurrence: (n+1)*(2*n+1)*a(n) = (14*n^2+9*n-2)*a(n-1) + 3*(14*n^2-51*n+43)*a(n-2) - 27*(n-2)*(2*n-5)*a(n-3). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 08 2012
G.f.: (1/x) * Series_Reversion( x * (1-x) * (1-2*x)^2 / (1 - 3*x + 3*x^2) ). - Paul D. Hanna, Oct 03 2014
a(n) = ((9-9*n)*(2*n-3)*(4*n+1)*a(n-2)+((8*n-2))*(10*n^2-5*n-3)*a(n-1))/((1+2*n)*(4*n-3)*(n+1)) for n>=2.
a(n) = hypergeom([1/2-n, -n], [2], 4). (End)
