%N Number of connected dominating sets in the n-crown graph.

%C A connected dominating set in the crown graph requires a minimum two vertices on each side of the graph which cannot be two pairs of opposing vertices. - _Andrew Howroyd_, Jun 03 2017

%F From _Colin Barker_, Jun 03 2017: (Start)

%F G.f.: x^3*(13 - 28*x + 12*x^2) / ((1 - x)^3*(1 - 2*x)^2*(1 - 4*x)).

%F a(n) = 11*a(n-1) - 47*a(n-2) + 101*a(n-3) - 116*a(n-4) + 68*a(n-5) - 16*a(n-6) for n>8.

%F (End)

%o (PARI) Vec(x^3*(13 - 28*x + 12*x^2) / ((1 - x)^3*(1 - 2*x)^2*(1 - 4*x)) + O(x^30)) \\ _Colin Barker_, Jun 03 2017
