%N Coordination sequence for one of the inner vertices introduced in the first inflation-deflation step in a chair tiling (see Comments for precise definition).

%C The first inflation-deflation step leads to the following configuration (where O marks the reference vertex for this sequence; this vertex is tetravalent from the second inflation-deflation step onwards):

%C After k > 1 inflation-deflation steps, we can compute a finite coordination sequence c_k (until we reach the edge of the tiling after k steps). It appears that for i and j such that 1 < i < j, c_i is a prefix of c_j; this sequence is the limiting sequence of the { c_i, i > 1 } family.

%C See A304076 for a variant of this sequence.

%C See A304050 for a similar sequence.
