%N Consider the graph with one central vertex connected to three outer vertices (a star graph). Then, a(n) is the minimum number of moves required to transfer a stack of n discs from the central vertex to an outer vertex, moving discs to adjacent vertices, following the rules of the Towers of Hanoi.
