Consider the Holladay-Ulam CA shown in Fig. 2 and Example 2 of the Ulam article. Then a(n) is the number of cells turned ON in generation n in a 45-degree sector that are not on the main stem.

EXAMPLE

If written as a triangle:
0,
1, 0,
0, 0, 1,
0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 4,
0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 4, 1, 1, 4, 4, 4, 13,
0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 4, 1, 1, 4, 4, 4, 13, 1, 1, 4, 4, 4, 13, 4, 4, 13, 13, 13, 40
0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 4, 1, 1, 4, 4, 4, 13, 1, 1, 4, 4, 4, 13, 4, 4, 13, 13, 13, 40, 1, 1, 4, 4, 4, 13, 4, 4, 13, 13, 13, 40, 4, 4, 13, 13, 13, 40, 13, 13, 40, 40, 40, 121,
...
then the rows converge to A151904.
