%N Number of 2 X n arrays of the minimum value of corresponding elements and their horizontal, vertical or diagonal neighbors in a random, but sorted with lexicographically nondecreasing rows and nonincreasing columns, 0..3 2 X n array.

%C Row 2 of A220204.

%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A220205/b220205.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>

%F Empirical: a(n) = (1/60)*n^5 - (1/8)*n^4 + (11/6)*n^3 - (7/8)*n^2 + (3/20)*n for n>1.

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Jul 31 2018: (Start)

%F G.f.: x*(4 - 14*x + 36*x^2 - 57*x^3 + 48*x^4 - 18*x^5 + 3*x^6) / (1 - x)^6.

%F a(n) = 6*a(n-1) - 15*a(n-2) + 20*a(n-3) - 15*a(n-4) + 6*a(n-5) - a(n-6) for n>7.

%F (End)
