%F It follows from Theorem 3 of the Fredkin.pdf (2015) paper that this satisfies the recurrence a(2t)=a(t), a(4t+1)=6*a(t), and a(4t+3)=7*a(2t+1)-12*a(t) for t>0, with a(0)=1. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Mar 10 2015

%e From _Omar E. Pol_, Sep 08 2016: (Start)

%e Written as an irregular triangle in which the row lengths are the terms of A011782 the sequence begins:

%e 1;

%e 6;

%e 6, 30;

%e 6, 36, 30, 138;

%e 6, 36, 36, 180, 30, 180, 138, 606;

%e 6, 36, 36, 180, 36, 216, 180, 828, 30, 180, 180, 900, 138, 828, 606, 2586;
