%N Number of n-step closed paths on the E7 lattice.

%C Calculated by brute force computational enumeration.

%C The moments of the imaginary part of the suitably normalized E7 lattice Green's function.

%F Summed combinatorial expressions and recurrence relations for this sequence exist, but have not been determined. These would allow one to write a differential equation or hypergeometric expression for the E7 lattice Green's function.

%e The 2-step walks consist of hopping to one of the 126 minimal vectors of the E7 lattice and then back to the origin.
