COMMENTS

a(n)=3^(n-1)*S'(n+1) where S'(n) denotes the number of rooted non-separable planar maps with n edges (the sequence A006402).

Also counts rooted planar 3-constellations with n triangles: rooted planar maps with bicolored faces having n black triangular faces and an arbitrary number of white faces of degrees multiple to 3. - Valery Liskovets (liskov(AT)im.bas-net.by), Dec 01 2003

FORMULA

a(n)=3^(n-1)*binomial(3n, n+1)/[n(2n+1)] G.f.: f(x)=(1+3y-y^2)/3 where 3x^2y^3-y+1=0.

G.f. satisfies A(z) = 1-47z+3z^2+3z(22-9z)A+9z(9z-2)A^2-81z^2A^3.
