FORMULA
|
If b(n) denotes the number of perfect matchings (or domino tilings) in O_5 X P_n we have:
b(1) = 0,
b(2) = 40,
b(3) = 0,
b(4) = 2197,
b(5) = 0,
b(6) = 121735,
b(7) = 0,
b(8) = 6748096,
b(9) = 0,
b(10) = 374079619,
b(11) = 0,
b(12) = 20737143595, and
b(n) = 65b(n-2) - 548b(n-4) + 995b(n-6) - 548b(n-8) + 65b(n-10) - b(n-12).
G.f.: -x*(x^5 -64*x^4 +523*x^3 -850*x^2 +403*x -40)/(x^6 -65*x^5 +548*x^4 -995*x^3 +548*x^2 -65*x +1). [Colin Barker, Aug 31 2012]
