%N Number of indecomposable ground-state 3-ball juggling sequences of period n.
%C This sequence counts the length n asynchronic site swaps given in A084511/A084512.
%C First differences of A084518. INVERTi transform of A084509. Cf. also A084529, A003319.
%C Equals left border of triangle A145463 [From _Gary W. Adamson_, Oct 11 2008]

%F a(n) seems to satisfy the recurrence : a(1) = a(2) = 1, a(3) = 3 and a(n) = 3*a(n-1)+2*a(n-2)+2*a(n-3). If so, a(n) = floor(A*B^n+1/2) where B = 3.6890953... is the real positive root of x^3-3x^2-2x-2 = 0 and A = 0.0687059... is the real positive root of 118*x^3+118*x^2+35*x-3 = 0. Benoit Cloitre, Jun 14 2003. [This conjecture is established in the Chung-Graham paper.]
