COMMENTS
This sequence counts fusenes up to rotations, but with no turning over allowed. Fusenes are like polyhexes with additional criteria that no holes are allowed, while on the other hand, helicene-like self-touching or self-overlapping configurations are included in the count here. Cf. the links and further comments at A258019.
For n >= 1, a(n) gives the total number of terms k in A258013 with binary width = 2n + 1, or equally, with A000523(k) = 2n.

a(n) = 2*A258019(n) - A258018(n).
a(n) >= A258204(n).
