COMMENTS
Other names for this structure are triamond, the Laves graph, K_4 lattice, (10,3)-a, or the srs net. A290705 is the theta series of the most symmetric embedding of this graph into space. - Andrey Zabolotskiy, Oct 05 2017
Sunada mentions several other contexts in chemistry and physics where this net occurs. - N. J. A. Sloane, Sep 25 2018
Also, coordination sequence of the hydrogen peroxide lattice. - Sean A. Irvine, May 09 2021

FORMULA
a(0)=1, a(1)=3, a(2)=6; for n>=3: if n == 0 (mod 3), a(n) = 4n^2/3; if n == 1 (mod 3), a(n) = (4n^2 + n + 4)/3; if n == 2 (mod 3), a(n) = (4n^2 - n + 10)/3.
G.f.: -(x+1)*(2*x^8-4*x^7+3*x^6-x^5+6*x^4+2*x^3+2*x^2+x+1) / ((x-1)^3*(x^2+x+1)^2). - Colin Barker, May 10 2013
