A137725 Number of sequences of length n with elements {-2,-1,+1,+2}, such that the sum of elements of the whole sequence but of no proper subsequence equals 0 modulo n. For n>=4, the number of Hamiltonian (directed) circuits on the circulant graph C_n(1,2). 2

COMMENTS

Number of 1-D walks with jumps to next-nearest neighbors with n steps, starting at 0 and ending at -2n, -n, 0, n, or 2n, such that every point is visited at most once and every pair of points at the distance n contains at least one unvisited point (not counting the ending visit). Cf. A092765.

For n>1, the number of circular permutations (counted up to rotations) of {0, 1,...,n-1} such that the distance between every two adjacent elements is -2,-1,1,or 2 modulo n. Cf. A003274.

FORMULA

For even n>=4, a(n) = 2*(n + 3*A000930(n) - 2*A000930(n-1)); for odd n>=3, a(n) = 2*(n + 1 + 3*A000930(n) - 2*A000930(n-1)).

For n>8, a(n) = 2*a(n-1) - a(n-3) - a(n-5) + a(n-6) or a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-2) - a(n-5) - 4.

O.g.f.: -2*x^2-2*x-6-1/(x+1)+2/(x-1)^2+1/(x-1)+(4*x-6)/(x^3+x-1). - R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Feb 10 2008
