%N Coordination sequence for trivalent node of type alpha'' in the first Moore pentagonal tiling.

%C There are six orbits on nodes, and six distinct coordination sequences, which are A307201 (nodes of type alpha), A307202 (alpha'), A307203 (alpha''), A307270 (alpha'''), A307204 (alpha''''), and A307206 (beta).

%C The group is p3m1. - _Davide M. Proserpio_, Apr 01 2019

%D Herbert C. Moore, U.S. Patent 928,320, Patented July 20 1909.

%F For n >= 10, a(n+4) = a(n) + [23,23,22,22] according as n == [0,1,2,3] mod 4. - Chaim Goodman-Strauss, Mar 31 2019

%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Apr 03 2019: (Start)

%F G.f.: (1 + 2*x + 5*x^2 + 5*x^3 + 7*x^4 + 8*x^5 + 4*x^6 + 8*x^7 + 3*x^8 + 4*x^9 + 2*x^10 - x^12 + x^13 - 4*x^14 + 2*x^15 - 2*x^16) / ((1 - x)^2*(1 + x)*(1 + x^2)^2).

%F a(n) = a(n-1) - a(n-2) + a(n-3) + a(n-4) - a(n-5) + a(n-6) - a(n-7) for n>16.
