COMMENTS

a(n)=NPC(2n;S;P) is the count of all neighbor-property cycles for a specific set S of 2n elements and a specific pair-property P. For more details, see the link and A242519.
In this particular instance of NPC(n;S;P), all the terms with odd cycle lengths are necessarily zero.

EXAMPLE
|
The two such cycles of length n=6 are:
C_1={1,2,3,6,5,4}, C_2={1,2,5,6,3,4}.
The first and last of the 27 such cycles of length n=10 are:
C_1={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}, C_27={1,4,7,8,5,2,3,6,9,10}.
