Table of n, a(n) for n=0..15.

Formula

a(n) = (n!)^2 * [x^n] 1 / (1 - 2 * Sum_{k>=1} x^k / (k!)^2).

a(n) = (n!)^2 * [x^n] 1 / (3 - 2 * BesselI(0,2*sqrt(x))).

a(n) ~ (n!)^2 / (2 * BesselI(1, 2*sqrt(r)) * r^(n + 1/2)), where r = 0.4473998881770456142157108538567782213913712561... is the root of the equation 2*BesselI(0, 2*sqrt(r)) = 3. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jul 17 2020
