%F From _Nathaniel Johnston_, Mar 28 2011: (Start)
%F a(n) = 2*A168113(n)
%F a(2^(n+2) + 1) = 4(2^n + 1), n >= 1.

%e Placing the entries starting from a(4) in a triangle with rows that have length equal to powers of two gives:
%e 6, 6
%e 6, 12, 14, 12
%e 6, 12, 14, 16, 18, 32, 34, 20
%e 6, 12, 14, 16, 18, 32, 34, 24, 18, 32, 38, 44, 62, 92, 82, 36
%e ...
%e The rows of this triangle tend to 2*A168114.
