COMMENTS

The average number of moves of a self-avoiding random walk of a knight on an infinite chessboard to self-trapping is 3210. The corresponding number of moves for paths with forbidden crossing (A323131) is 45.
a(n)=0 for n<15.

There are two (of a(15)=1728) paths of 15 moves of minimum extension 5 X 5:
(N) b1 d2 e4 c5 a4 b2 d1 e3 d5 b4 a2 c1 e2 d4 b5 c3, and
(N) a4 c5 e4 d2 b1 a3 b5 d4 e2 c1 a2 b4 d5 e3 d1 c3.
