G. C. Greubel, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..1000
Jun Wang and Zhizheng Zhang, On extensions of Calkin's binomial identities, Discrete Math., 274 (2004), 331-342.
FORMULA
a(n) = n*(15*n^3 + 30*n^2 + 21*n - 2)*4^(n-3) - (n-1)^2*n^2*(n+1)*binomial(2*n, n)/(8*(2*n-1)). (See Wang and Zhang, p. 338.)
From G. C. Greubel, May 25 2022: (Start)
a(n) = n*(15*n^3 + 30*n^2 + 21*n - 2)*4^(n-3) - 9*binomial(n+1, 3)^2 * Catalan(n- 1)/(n+1).
G.f.: x*(4*(1 + 15*x + 12*x^2 + 8*x^3) - 3*x*(1 + 6*x - 6*x^2 + 4*x^3)*sqrt(1-4*x))/(1-4*x)^5. (End)
MAPLE
S2:= (n, t) -> add(k^t*add(binomial(n, j), j = 0..k)^2, k = 0..n);
seq(S2(n, 3), n = 0..40);
