%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

%F For n >= 10, a(n+4) = a(n) + [18,21,24,27] 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 + 3*x + 6*x^2 + 6*x^3 + 10*x^4 + 12*x^5 + 12*x^6 + 18*x^7 + 7*x^8 + 6*x^10 + 3*x^11 + 12*x^12 + 12*x^13 - 12*x^16 - 6*x^17) / ((1 - x)^2*(1 + x)^2*(1 + x^2)^2).

%F a(n) = 2*a(n-4) - a(n-8) for n>17.
