Table of n, a(n) for n=0..20.

Example

For n=4, there are 4!-a(4)=3 permutations with some consecutive triple i,i+d,i+2d. Note for n=4, only d=1 applies. Hence those three permutations are (0,1,2,3), (1,2,3,0), and (3,0,1,2). Since here only d=1, this is the same value of a(4) in A002628.

Maple

b:= proc(s, x, y) option remember; `if`(s={}, 1, add(
      `if`(x=0 or x<y or x-y<>y-j,
         b(s minus {j}, y, j), 0), j=s))
    end:
a:= n-> b({$1..n}, 0$2):
seq(a(n), n=0..14);  # Alois P. Heinz, Apr 13 2021

Mathematica

b[s_, x_, y_] := b[s, x, y] = If[s == {}, 1, Sum[If[x == 0 || x < y || x-y != y-j, b[s~Complement~{j}, y, j], 0], {j, s}]];
a[n_] := b[Range[n], 0, 0];
Table[a[n], {n, 0, 14}] (* Jean-François Alcover, Sep 27 2022, after Alois P. Heinz *)
