COMMENTS

Same as Pisot sequences E(1,8), L(1,8), P(1,8), T(1,8). See A008776 for definitions of Pisot sequences.

If X_1, X_2, ..., X_n is a partition of the set {1,2,...,2*n} into blocks of size 2 then, for n>=1, a(n) is equal to the number of functions f : {1,2,..., 2*n}->{1,2,3} such that for fixed y_1,y_2,...,y_n in {1,2,3} we have f(X_i)<>{y_i}, (i=1,2,...,n). - Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), May 24 2007

1/1 + 1/8 + 1/64 + 1/512 + 1/4096 + ... = 8/7 [From Gary W. Adamson (qntmpkt(AT)yahoo.com), Aug 29 2008]

a(n) = A157176(A008588(n)); a(n+1) = A157176(A016969(n)). [From Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Feb 24 2009]

This is the auto-convolution (convolution square) of A059304. [From R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), May 25 2009]

The compositions of n in which each natural number is colored by one of p different colors are called p-colored compositions of n. For n>=1, a(n) equals the number of 8-colored compositions of n such that no adjacent parts have the same color. - Milan Janjic, Nov 17 2011
