COMMENTS
Let M_n be the n X n matrix m_(i,j) = 2 + abs(i-j) then det(M_n) = (-1)^(n-1)*a(n-1). - Benoit Cloitre, May 28 2002
a(n) is the number of triangulations of a regular (n+3)-gon in which every triangle shares at least one side with the polygon itself. - David Callan, Mar 25 2004
Number of compositions of j+n, j>n and j the maximum part. E.g. a(4) is derived from the number of compositions of, for example: 54(2), 531(6), 522(3), 5211(12) and 51111(5) giving 2+6+3+12+5=28. - Jon Perry, Sep 13 2005
If X_1,X_2,...,X_n are 2-blocks of a (2n+2)-set X then, for n>=1, a(n+1) is the number of (n+1)-subsets of X intersecting each X_i, (i=1,2,...,n). - Milan Janjic, Nov 18 2007
Generated from iterates of M * [1,1,1,...], where M = an infinite triadiagonal matrix with (1,1,1,...) in the main and superdiagonals and (1,0,0,0,...) in the subdiagonal. - Gary W. Adamson, Jan 04 2009
a(n) is the number of weak compositions of n with exactly 1 part equal to 0. - Milan Janjic, Jun 27 2010
An elephant sequence, see A175654. For the corner squares 16 A[5] vectors, with decimal values between 19 and 400, lead to this sequence. For the central square these vectors lead to the companion sequence A045891 (without the first leading 1). - Johannes W. Meijer, Aug 15 2010
Equals first finite difference row of A001792: (1, 3, 8, 20, 48, 112, ...). - Gary W. Adamson, Oct 26 2010
With alternating signs the g.f. is: (1 + x)^2/(1 + 2*x)^2.
Number of 132-avoiding permutations of [n+2] containing exactly one 213 pattern. - David Scambler, Nov 07 2011
a(n) is the number of 1's in all compositions of n+1 = the number of 2's in all compositions of n+2 = the number of 3's in all compositions of n+3 = ... So the partial sums = A001792. - Geoffrey Critzer, Feb 12 2012
Also number of compositions of n into 2 sorts of parts where all parts of the first sort precede all parts of the second sort; see example. - Joerg Arndt, Apr 28 2013
a(n) is also the difference of the total number of parts between all compositions of n+1 and all compositions of n. The equivalent sequence for partitions is A138137. - Omar E. Pol, Aug 28 2013
Except for an initial 1, this is the p-INVERT of (1,1,1,1,1,...) for p(S) = (1 - S)^2; see A291000. - Clark Kimberling, Aug 24 2017
For a composition of n, the total number of runs of parts of size k is a(n-k) - a(n-2k). - Gregory L. Simay, Feb 17 2018
a(n) is the number of binary trees on n+1 nodes that are isomorphic to a path graph. The ratio of a(n)/A000108(n+1) gives the probability that a random Catalan tree on n+1 nodes is isomorphic to a path graph. - Marcel K. Goh, May 09 2020
a(n) is the number of words of length n over the alphabet {0,1,2} such that the first letter is not 2 and the last 1 occurs before the first 0. - Henri Mühle, Mar 08 2021
Also the number of "special permutations" in the Weng and Zagier reference. - F. Chapoton, Sep 30 2022
a(n-k) is the total number of runs of 1s of length k over all binary n-strings. - Félix Balado, Dec 11 2022

EXAMPLE
E.g. a(2)=5 because in the compositions of 3, namely 3,2+1,1+2,1+1+1, we have five 1's altogether.
There are a(3)=12 compositions of 3 into 2 sorts of parts where all parts of the first sort precede all parts of the second sort. Here p:s stands for "part p of sort s":
01: [ 1:0 1:0 1:0 ]
02: [ 1:0 1:0 1:1 ]
03: [ 1:0 1:1 1:1 ]
04: [ 1:0 2:0 ]
05: [ 1:0 2:1 ]
06: [ 1:1 1:1 1:1 ]
07: [ 1:1 2:1 ]
08: [ 2:0 1:0 ]
09: [ 2:0 1:1 ]
10: [ 2:1 1:1 ]
11: [ 3:0 ]
12: [ 3:1 ]
