Recurrence formulation of the alpha-family Hankel-transform conjecture

From papers

Let an(β)a_n(\beta) be defined by

an=an1+3an2+k=1n3akank2,a_n=a_{n-1}+3a_{n-2}+\sum_{k=1}^{n-3}a_k a_{n-k-2},

with a0=1a_0=1, a1=0a_1=0, and a2=βa_2=\beta, and let hn(β)h_n(\beta) be its Hankel transform. Recurrence-form Hankel-transform conjecture. The Hankel transform is

hn(β)=β(n+1)24[xn](1+x)(1βx2)13x2+βx4.h_n(\beta)=\beta^{\left\lfloor\frac{(n+1)^2}{4}\right\rfloor}[x^n]\frac{(1+x)(1-\beta x^2)}{1-3x^2+\beta x^4}.

This is a reformulation of the preceding alpha-family conjecture under β=α2\beta=\alpha-2.
