FORMULA
a(n) = 48*binomial(n,3)*(1/2)_{n}*(-2)^(n - 3)*hypergeometric1f1(3-n, -2*n, -2), where (a)_{n} is the Pochhammer symbol. - G. C. Greubel, Aug 15 2017
G.f.: (90*x^3/(1-x)^7)*hypergeometric2f0(4,7/2; - ; -2*x/(1-x)^2). - G. C. Greubel, Aug 16 2017
D-finite with recurrence (-n+3)*a(n) +(-2*n^2+11)*a(n-1) +(-2*n^2+8*n+3)*a(n-2) +(n+1)*a(n-3)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Jul 25 2022
