COMMENTS
Equivalently, the graph can be described as the graph on 3*n + 1 vertices with labels 0..3*n and with i and j adjacent iff A011655(i + j) = 1.
These graphs are cographs.

FORMULA
a(n) = (n + 1)*(2*n)^n*(2*n + 1)^(2*(n - 1)).
EXAMPLE
The adjacency matrix of the graph associated with n = 2 is: (compare A204437)
[0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0]
[1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1]
[1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1]
[0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0]
[1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1]
[1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1]
[0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0]
a(2) = 1200 because the graph has 1200 spanning trees.
