Comments

The generating function of this is the product of the g.f. of the connected diagrams (A352174) by the g.f. of the vacuum diagrams (A129429, including a term x^0 for the empty graph): x +2*x^2 +7*x^3 +23*x^4 ... = (x +x^2 +3*x^3 +10*x^4+ ...) * (1 +x +3*x^2 +7*x^3 +20*x^4+....). - R. J. Mathar, Mar 05 2023

a(n) is the number of multigraphs with n unlabeled nodes of degree 4 plus 2 noninterchangeable nodes of degree 1, loops allowed. - Andrew Howroyd, Mar 10 2023
