COMMENTS

a(n) is the Parker sequence for the automorphism group of the limit of the class of oriented graphs; a(n) counts the finite circulant structures in that class. - Nour-Eddine Fahssi (fahssin(AT)yahoo.fr), Feb 18 2008

FORMULA

O.g.f.: (1+x)/(1-3*x^2). [R. J. Mathar, Apr 01 2008]

a(n)=3^(n/2)*((1+(-1)^n)/2+(1-(-1)^n)/(2*sqrt(3))). [From Paul Barry, Nov 12 2009]

a(n+3) = a(n+2)*a(n+1)/a(n). [Reinhard Zumkeller, Mar 04 2011]

a(n) = (-1)^n*Sum_{k, 0<=0<=n} A158020(n,k)*2^k. - DELEHAM Philippe, Dec 01 2011

PROG
