%N Number of 5-bead necklaces labeled with numbers -n..n allowing reversal, with sum zero.

%C Row 5 of A208825.

%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A208826/b208826.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - a(n-2) - 5*a(n-3) + 5*a(n-4) + a(n-5) - 3*a(n-6) + a(n-7).

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Jul 06 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(7 + 24*x + 27*x^2 + 30*x^3 + 5*x^4 - 2*x^5 + x^6) / ((1 - x)^5*(1 + x)^2).

%F a(n) = (23*n^4 + 46*n^3 + 58*n^2 + 44*n + 24) / 24 for n even.

%F a(n) = (23*n^4 + 46*n^3 + 58*n^2 + 26*n + 15) / 24 for n odd.

%F (End)
