COMMENTS

First column of the Riordan array ((1-2x)/(1+x+x^2),x/(1+x+x^2))^(-1). [Paul Barry, Nov 06 2008]

Apparently the Motzkin transform of A125176, supposed A125176 is interpreted with offset 0. [R. J. Mathar, Dec 11 2008]

a(n) is the number of Motzkin paths of length n in which the (1,0)-steps at level 0 come in 3 colors. Example: a(3)=34 because, denoting  U=(1,1), H=(1,0), and D=(1,-1), we have 3^3 = 27 paths of shape HHH, 3 paths of shape HUD, 3 paths of shape UDH, and 1 path of shape UHD. - Emeric Deutsch, May 02 2011

FORMULA

a(n) = Sum[k=0..n, 2^(n-k)*A026300(n, k) ], where A026300 is the Motzkin triangle. - Ralf Stephan, Jan 25 2005 [Corrected by Philippe Deléham, Nov 29 2009]

a(n)= A126954(n,0). [Philippe Deléham, Nov 24 2009]

G.f.: 2/(1-5*x+sqrt(1-2*x-3*x^2)). - Emeric Deutsch, May 02 2011

Recurrence: 2*(n+1)*a(n) = (11*n+5)*a(n-1) - (8*n+5)*a(n-2) - 21*(n-2)*a(n-3). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 11 2012

a(n) ~ 3*7^n/2^(n+2). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 11 2012
