%N a(n) is the number of polyominoes with n edges, including inner edges.

%C An n-celled polyomino with perimeter p has (4n+p)/2 edges. The maximum number of edges in an n-celled polyomino is 3n+1.

%H Andrew Clarke, <a href="http://www.recmath.com/PolyPages/PolyPages/Isopolyos.html">Isoperimetrical Polyominoes</a>

%F See A342243 for formula.

%e A single cell has 4 edges; a domino has 7 edges (this includes the edge between the two cells); both trominoes have 10 edges; their possible orientations are not considered distinct. Thus a(4) = a(7) = 1, a(10) = 2, and a(n) = 0 for n < 10 not equal to 4 or 7.

%e a(22) = 85 = 83 + 2: there are 83 polyominoes with 7 cells and perimeter 16 (such as a 1 X 7 strip) and two polyominoes with 8 cells and perimeter 12 (a 3 X 3 square without a corner and a 4 X 2 rectangle), and each of these polyominoes has 22 edges.

%e a(23) = 21. a(24) = 91+1. a(25) = 255+9. a(26) = 89. a(27) = 339+6. a(28) = 847+67. a(34) = 9734+1655+11. a(35) = 7412+174. - _R. J. Mathar_, Feb 22 2021

%Y Cf. A000105, A057730, A342243.

%Y Cf. A131482 (number of n-celled polyominoes with perimeter 2n+2), A131488 (analog for hexagonal tiling).
