Row sums of triangle A104567 = (1, 4, 8, 14, 21,...). - Gary W. Adamson, May 05 2007
Equals (1, 2, 3, 4,...) convolved with (1, 2, 1, 2,...). a(4) = 14 = (1, 2, 3, 4) dot (2, 1, 2, 1) = (2 + 2 + 6 + 4). - Gary W. Adamson, May 01 2009
We observe that is the transform of A032766 by the following transform T: T(u_0,u_1,u_2,u_3,...) = (u_0,u_0+u_1, u_0+u_1+u_2, u_0+u_1+u_2+u_3+u_4,...). In another terms v_p=sum(u_k,k=0..p) and the G.f phi_v of is given by: phi_v=phi_u/(1-z). - Richard Choulet, Jan 28 2010
Equals row sums of a triangle with (1, 4, 7, 10,...) in every column, shifted down twice for columns >1. - Gary W. Adamson, Mar 03 2010
Number of pairs (x,y) with x in {0,...,n}, y odd in {0,...,2n}, and x<y. [Clark Kimberling, Jul 02 2012]
Also A049451 and positives A000567 interleaved. - Omar E. Pol, Aug 03 2012
Similar to A001082. Members of this family are A093005, A210977, this sequence, A210978, A181995, A210981, A210982. - Omar E. Pol, Aug 09 2012

Expansion of x*(1+2*x) / ((1-x)^2*(1-x^2)).
Partial sums of A032766. - Paul Barry, May 30 2003
a(n) = a(n-1)+a(n-2)-a(n-3)+3 = A002620(n)+A004526(n) = A002378(n)-A002620(n) = A001859(n)-A004526(n+1) - Henry Bottomley, Mar 08 2000
a(n) = (6*n^2+4*n-1+(-1)^n)/8. - Paul Barry, May 30 2003
a(-1-n) = A001859(n). - Michael Somos, May 10 2006
a(n) = (A002378(n)/2 + A035608(n))/2. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Feb 07 2010
a(n) = (3*n*n+2*n-(n mod 2))/4. - Ctibor O. Zizka, Mar 11 2012
a(n) = sum(i=1..n, floor(3*i/2)) = sum(i=0..n, i + floor(i/2)). - Enrique Pérez Herrero, Apr 21 2012
a(n) = 3*n*(n+1)/2-A001859(n). [Clark Kimberling, July 2 2012]
