COMMENTS
A solid 2-tree is a 2-tree embedded in three-dimensional space. That is, the faces of the triangles cannot interpenetrate themselves, so that there is a cyclic configuration of triangles around every edge. Bousquet and Lamathe showed the number of well-oriented edge-labeled solid 2-trees with 2n+1 edges is a(n). - Allan Bickle, Feb 19 2024
