%N Coordination sequence for planar net 3.6.3.6. Spherical growth function for a certain reflection group in plane.

%C Interesting because coefficients never become monotonic.

%C Also the coordination sequence for a planar net made of densely packed circles. - _Yuriy Sibirmovsky_, Sep 11 2016

%C Described by J.-G. Eon (2014) as the coordination sequence of the Kagome net. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Jan 03 2018
