%N a(n) = 348*2^n - 188.

%C a(n) is the second Zagreb index of the phenylazomethine dendrimer G[n], defined pictorially in the Golriz et al. reference (Fig. 1). The second Zagreb index of a simple connected graph is the sum of the degree products d(i)d(j) over all edges ij of the graph.

%C The M-polynomial of the dendrimer G[n] is M(G[n],x,y) = (24*2^n - 8)*x^2*y^2 + (24*2^n - 16)*x^2*y^3 + (12*2^n -12)*x^3*y^3 +4*x^3*y^4.
