%N Nonnegative integers repeated 4 times.

%C For n>=1 and i=sqrt(-1) let F(n) the n X n matrix of the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) whose element (j,k) equals exp(-2*Pi*i*(j-1)*(k-1)/n)/sqrt(n). The multiplicities of the four eigenvalues 1, i, -1, -i of F(n) are a(n+4), a(n-1), a(n+2), a(n+1), hence a(n+4) + a(n-1) + a(n+2) + a(n+1) = n for n>=1. E.g., the multiplicities of the eigenvalues 1, i, -1, -i of the DFT-matrix F(4) are a(8)=2, a(3)=0, a(6)=1, a(5)=1, summing up to 4. - _Franz Vrabec_, Jan 21 2005

%C Complement of A010873, since A010873(n)+4*a(n)=n. - _Hieronymus Fischer_, Jun 01 2007

%C For even values of n, a(n) gives the number of partitions of n into exactly two parts with both parts even. - _Wesley Ivan Hurt_, Feb 06 2013

%C a(n-4) counts number of partitions of (n) into parts 1 and 4. For example a(11) = 3 with partitions (44111), (41111111), (11111111111). - _David Neil McGrath_, Dec 04 2014

%C a(n-4) counts walks (closed) on the graph G(1-vertex; 1-loop, 4-loop) where order of loops is unimportant. - _David Neil McGrath_, Dec 04 2014

%C Number of partitions of n into 4 parts whose smallest 3 parts are equal. - _Wesley Ivan Hurt_, Jan 17 2021
