COMMENTS

Monomer-dimer tatami tilings are arrangements of 1 X 1 monomers, 2 X 1 vertical dimers and 1 X 2 horizontal dimers on subsets of the integer grid, with the property that no four tiles meet at any point. a(n) applies to tilings of this type which have monomers in their top corners.
a(n) is the table T(2,0); T(3,0), T(3,1); T(4,0), T(4,1), T(4,2), T(4,3); T(5,0), T(5,1) ... where T(n,k) is the number of n X n tilings of the type described above with exactly k vertical dimers when n is even and exactly k horizontal dimers when n is odd.

FORMULA
|
G.f.: T_n(z) = Sum_{k>=0} T(n,k)*z^k is equal to
T_n(z) = 2*Sum_{i=1..floor((n-1)/2)} S_{n-i-2}(z)*S_{i-1}(z)*z^{n-i-1} + (S_{floor((n-2)/2))^2, where S_k(z) = Product_{i=1..k} (1+z^i). Note that deg(T_n(z)) = binomial(n-1,2).

EXAMPLE

T_5(z) = 1 + 2*z + 3*z^2 + 6*z^3 + 4*z^4 + 2*z^5 + 2*z^6;
T(5,2) = 3, and the tilings are as follows:
