COMMENTS

Number of ways to color vertices (or edges) of a triangle using <= n colors, allowing only rotations.
Also: dot_product (1,2,...,n)*(2,3,...,n,1), n >= 0. - Clark Kimberling
Start from triacid and attach amino acids according to the reaction scheme that describes the reaction between the active sites. See the hyperlink below on chemistry. - Robert G. Wilson v, Aug 02 2002
Starting with offset 1 = row sums of triangle A158822 and binomial transform of (1, 3, 4, 2, 0, 0, 0, ...). - Gary W. Adamson, Mar 28 2009
One-ninth of sum of three consecutive cubes: a(n) = ((n-1)^3 + n^3 + (n+1)^3)/9. - Zak Seidov, Jul 22 2013
For n > 2, number of different cubes, formed after splitting a cube in color C_1, by parallel planes in the colors C_2, C_3, ..., C_n in three spatial dimensions (in the order of the colors from a fixed vertex). Generally, in a large hypercube n^d is f(n,d) = C(n+d-1, d) + C(n, d) different small hypercubes. See below for my formula a(n) = f(n,3). - Thomas Ordowski, Jun 15 2014
a(n) is a square for n = 1, 2 & 24; and for no other values up to 10^7 (see M. Gardner). - Michel Marcus, Sep 06 2015
Number of unit tetrahedra contained in an n-scale tetrahedron composed of a tetrahedral-octahedral honeycomb. - Jason Pruski, Aug 23 2017

FORMULA

a(0)=0, a(1)=1, a(2)=4, a(3)=11; for n > 3, a(n) = 4*a(n-1) - 6*a(n-2) + 4*a(n-3) - a(n-4). - Harvey P. Dale, Jun 13 2011
From Paul Barry, Mar 13 2003: (Start)
a(n) = 2*binomial(n+1, 3) + binomial(n, 1).
G.f.: x*(1+x^2)/(1-x)^4. (End)
a(n) = A000292(n-1) + A000292(n-3). - Alexander Adamchuk, May 20 2006
a(n) = n*A059100(n)/3. - Lekraj Beedassy, Feb 06 2007
a(n) = A054602(n)/3. - Zerinvary Lajos, Apr 20 2008
a(n) = ( n + Sum_{i=1..n} A177342(i) )/(n+1), with n > 0. - Bruno Berselli, May 19 2010
a(n) = A002264(A000578(n) + A005843(n)). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jun 16 2011
a(n) = binomial(n+2, 3) + binomial(n, 3). - Thomas Ordowski, Jun 15 2014
a(n) = A000292(n) - A000292(-n). - Bruno Berselli, Sep 22 2016
E.g.f.: (x/3)*(3 + 3*x + x^2)*exp(x). - G. C. Greubel, Sep 01 2017
