COMMENTS
A length n inversion sequence e_1e_2...e_n is a sequence of integers where 0 <= e_i <= i-1. The term a(n) counts those length n inversion sequences with no entries e_i, e_j, e_k (where i<j<k) such that e_i > e_j < e_k and e_i <> e_k. This is the same as the set of length n inversion sequences avoiding 102 and 201.

FORMULA
G.f.: (-8*x^4 + 18*x^3 - 10*x^2 - 8*x + 4 + 2 * (2*x - 1) * (x^2 - 2*x + 2) * ((5*x - 1)*(x - 1))^(1/2)) / (4*x * (2*x - 1) * (x - 1) * (x - 2)^2). - Benjamin Testart, Jul 12 2024
a(n) ~ 41 * 5^(n + 3/2) / (648 * sqrt(Pi) * n^(3/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Nov 21 2024
EXAMPLE
The length 4 inversion sequences avoiding (102, 201) are 0000, 0001, 0002, 0003, 0010, 0011, 0012, 0013, 0020, 0021, 0022, 0023, 0100, 0101, 0110, 0111, 0112, 0113, 0120, 0121, 0122, 0123
