Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

Sum of all second elements at level n of the TRIP-Stern sequence corresponding to the permutation triple (e,e,e)
Number of permutations of length n>0 avoiding the partially ordered pattern (POP) {1>4, 3>2} of length 4. That is, number of length n permutations having no subsequences of length 4 in which the first element is larger than the last element, and the third element is larger than the second one. - Sergey Kitaev, Dec 08 2020
