FORMULA
a(n) = 4n^2 + 6n + 5.
G.f.: x*(15-12*x+5*x^2)/(1-x)^3.
The Hosoya-Wiener polynomial is (4n+1)t + (2n^2 + n + 2)t^2.
EXAMPLE
a(1)=15; indeed K(1,1) is the 1-edge graph; the Mycielski construction yields the cycle C(5); its Wiener index is 5*1 + 5*2 = 15.
MAPLE
a := proc (n) options operator, arrow: 4*n^2+6*n+5 end proc; seq(a(n), n = 1 .. 38);
