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”).

%N Erroneous version of A263656.
%C Included in accordance with OEIS policy of including erroneous but published sequences to serve as pointers to the correct versions.
%C Number of length-2n central circular binary strings without zigzags (see reference for precise definition).
%C Differs from A263656 at only a(1).
%C See page 6, "Central strings", which gives this almost certainly incorrect sequence.
%C Compare with leading diagonal of Fig 1 (which is A253656)
%C [The other possible rationale for this discrepanncy would be that this sequence also counts the strings 01 and 10. However these are excluded from the other sequences and formula in the same paper.]
