%N Number of n X 4 arrays of the minimum value of corresponding elements and their horizontal or antidiagonal neighbors in a random, but sorted with lexicographically nondecreasing rows and columns, 0..1 n X 4 array.

%C Column 4 of A219773.

%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A219769/b219769.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = (1/10080)*n^8 - (1/120)*n^6 + (73/240)*n^5 - (487/160)*n^4 + (1015/48)*n^3 - (191389/2520)*n^2 + (2351/20)*n - 5 for n>5.

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Jul 27 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(4 - 27*x + 96*x^2 - 209*x^3 + 319*x^4 - 357*x^5 + 305*x^6 - 190*x^7 + 94*x^8 - 54*x^9 + 35*x^10 - 12*x^11 - x^12 + x^13) / (1 - x)^9.

%F a(n) = 9*a(n-1) - 36*a(n-2) + 84*a(n-3) - 126*a(n-4) + 126*a(n-5) - 84*a(n-6) + 36*a(n-7) - 9*a(n-8) + a(n-9) for n>14.
