COMMENTS
See the general array and triangle for the average number of round trips of length L on (open) Laguerre graphs L_N given in A201198. Here a(n) = w(4,L=n), n>=0, the fourth row in this array. In the corresponding triangle this is the column no. N=4 without leading zeros: a(n) = A201198(n+3,4), n>=0.
For a sketch of this Laguerre graph L_4 see Figure 3 of the W. Lang link. The o.g.f. is also given there.
By definition the number of zero length round trips of length 0 for a vertex is put to 1 in order to count vertices.

FORMULA
a(n) = A201198(n+3,4), n>=0.
O.g.f.: (1-12*x+36*x^2-24*x^3)/(1-16*x+72*x^2-96*x^3+24*x^4).
EXAMPLE
n=0: a(0)=1 because the average number of vertices is 4/4=1.
a(1)= (1+3+5+7)/4 = 4, from the sum of the self-loops of L_4 divided by the number of vertices 4.
The counting for n=2, a(2)= 112/4 = 28, has been given as an example to A201198.
