FORMULA

Limit n ->infty (a(n))^(1/n^2) =c1=1.50304... is the hard square entropy constant A085850. - Benoit Cloitre, Nov 16 2003

a(n) appears to behave like A * c3^n * c1^(n^2) where c1 is as above, c3 = 1.143519129587 approximately A = 1.0660826 approximately. This is based on numerical analysis of a(n) for n up to 19. - Brendan McKay, Nov 16 2003
