COMMENTS

a(n) is also the binary rank of the complete graph K(n) [From Alessandro Cosentino (cosenal(AT)gmail.com), Feb 07 2009]

Its ordinal transform is A000034 [From Paolo P. Lava (paoloplava(AT)gmail.com), Jun 25 2009]

Let I=I_n be the nXn identity matrix and P=P_n be the incidence matrix of the cycle (1,2,3,...,n). Then,for n>=6, a(n) is the number of (0,1) nXn matrices A<=P^(-1)+I+P having exactly two 1's in every row and column with perA=2. [From Vladimir Shevelev (shevelev(AT)bgu.ac.il), Apr 12 2010]

FORMULA

a(n)=2*floor(n/2). G.f.: 2*x^2/((-1+x)^2*(1+x)).

a(n)+a(n+1)+2-2*n=0.

a(n) = n-1/2+(-1)^(-n)/2.

a(n) = n + Sum{k=1..n, (-1)^k} - William A. Tedeschi (fynmun(AT)hotmail.com), Mar 20 2008

a(n) = a(n-1)+a(n-2)-a(n-3). [R. J. Mathar (mathar(at)strw.leidenunvi.nl), Feb 19 2010]

a(n) = |A123684(n) - A064455(n)| = A032766(n) - A008619(n-1). [Jaroslav Krizek, Mar 22 2011]

For n>0 a(n) = floor(sqrt(n^2+(-1)^n)). [From Francesco Daddi, Aug 02 2011]

a(n)=Sum_k>=0 {A030308(n,k)*b(k)} with b(0)=0 and b(k)=2^k for k>0. - From DELEHAM Philippe, Oct 19 2011.
