%N Number A(n,k) of 2-colorings of a k X n rectangle such that no nontrivial subsquare has monochromatic corners; square array A(n,k), n>=0, k>=0, read by antidiagonals.

%e A(2,2) = 2^(2*2) - 2 = 14 because there are exactly two of sixteen 2-colorings of the 2 X 2 square resulting in nontrivial subsquares with monochromatic corners.

%e Square array A(n,k) begins:

%e 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, ...

%e 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, ...

%e 1, 4, 14, 50, 178, 634, 2258, ...

%e 1, 8, 50, 276, 1498, 8352, 46730, ...

%e 1, 16, 178, 1498, 10980, 85138, 655090, ...

%e 1, 32, 634, 8352, 85138, 781712, 6965108, ...

%e 1, 64, 2258, 46730, 655090, 6965108, 58339148, ...

%Y Columns (or rows) k=0-5 give: A000012, A000079, A055099, A133357, A255255, A255262.

%Y Main diagonal gives A018803.

%K nonn,tabl

%O 0,5
