COMMENTS

Or, number of permutations with no fixed points avoiding 213 and 132.

Number of derangements of {1,2,...,n} having ascending runs consisting of consecutive integers. Example: a(4)=6 because we have 234/1, 34/12, 34/2/1, 4/123, 4/3/12, 4/3/2/1, the ascending runs being as indicated. - Emeric Deutsch, Dec 08 2004

Let c be twice sequence A002450 interlaced with itself (from the second term), i.e. c = 2*(0, 1, 1, 5, 5, 21, 21, 85, 85, 341, 341, ). Let d be powers of 4 interlace with the zero-sequence: d = (1, 0, 4, 0, 16, 0, 64, 0, 256, 0,). Then a(n+1) = c(n) + d(n). - Creighton Dement (creighton.k.dement(AT)uni-oldenburg.de), May 09 2005

Inverse binomial transform of A094705 (0, 1, 4, 15). - Paul Curtz (bpcrtz(AT)free.fr), Jun 15 2008

Equals row sums of triangle A177993 [From Gary W. Adamson, May 16 2010]

a(n-1) is also the number of order-preserving partial isometries (of an n-chain) of fix 1 (fix of alpha equals the number of fixed points of alpha).- Abdullahi Umar, Dec 28 2010

a(n+1) is also the Moore lower bound on the order of a (5,n)-cage. - Jason Kimberley, Oct 31 2011

FORMULA

a(n) = (3/8)*2^n +(1/24)*(-2)^n - 2/3.

a(n) = 4*a(n-2) + 2, a(1)=0, a(2)=1.

G.f: z^2*(1+z)/((1-z)(1-4*z^2).

a(n) = A020989((n-2)/2) for n=2, 4, 6, ... and A020988((n-3)/2) for n=3, 5, 7, ...

a(n+1)-2*a(n) = A078008 signed. Differences: doubled A000302. - Paul Curtz, Jun 15 2008

a(2i+1) = 2 sum_{j=0}^{i-1}4^j = string "2"^i read in base 4.

a(2i+2) = 4^i + 2 sum_{j=0}^{i-1}4^j = string "1"*"2"^i read in base 4.

EXAMPLE

a(4)=6 because the only 132- and 213-avoiding permutations of {1,2,3,4} without fixed points are: 2341, 3412, 3421, 4123, 4312 and 4321.
