%N Constant term of the reduction by x^2->x+3 of the polynomial p(n,x)=1+x^n+x^(2n).

%C For an introduction to reductions of polynomials by substitutions such as x^2->x+3, see A192232.

%F Empirical G.f.: -x*(81*x^4-87*x^3-x^2+20*x-4)/((x-1)*(3*x^2+x-1)*(9*x^2-7*x+1)). [_Colin Barker_, Nov 12 2012]

%e The first four polynomials p(n,x) and their reductions are as follows:

%e p(1,x)=1+x+x^2 -> 4+2x

%e p(2,x)=1+x^2+x^4 -> 16+8x

%e p(3,x)=1+x^3+x^6 -> 61+44x

%e p(4,x)=1+x^4+x^8 -> 304+224x.

%e From these, read

%e A192468=(4,16,61,304,...) and A192469=(2,8,44,224,...)
