%N a(n) is the number of permutations pi on n letters such that pi(i) != i (mod 3) for all i.

%C a(n) is the permanent of the n X n matrix given by f(i,j) = ((i-j)^2 mod 3).

%H Vaclav Kotesovec, <a href="/A340900/b340900.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..35</a> (terms 0..33 from Pontus von Brömssen)

%F a(3*n) = A204436(3*n) = A204438(3*n) = A204440(3*n),

%F a(3*n+1) = A204438(3*n+1), and

%F a(3*n+2) = A204436(3*n+2).

%e For n = 4, the a(4) = 4 allowable permutations (read as words) are

%e (2,4,1,3),

%e (2,1,4,3),

%e (3,4,1,2), and

%e (3,1,4,2).

%e These are all of the permutations in S_4 subject to the restriction that the first letter cannot be 1 or 4, the second letter cannot be 2, the third letter cannot be 3, and the fourth letter cannot be 1 or 4.
