%N Layer counting sequence for hyperbolic tessellation by cuspidal triangles of angles (Pi/3,Pi/3,0) (this is the classical modular tessellation).

%C The layer sequence is the sequence of the cardinalities of the layers accumulating around a ( finite-sided ) polygon of the tessellation under successive side-reflections; see the illustration accompanying A054888.

%C Equivalently, coordination sequence for (3,3,infinity) tiling of hyperbolic plane. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Dec 29 2015

%C Equivalently, spherical growth series for modular group.

%C Also, number of sequences of length n with terms 1, 2, and 3, with no adjacent terms equal, and no three consecutive terms (1, 2, 3) or (3, 2, 1). - _Pontus von Brömssen_, Jan 03 2022
