FORMULA
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..floor((n-1)/2)} 9^k * Stirling2(n,2*k+1).
a(n) = ( Bell_n(3) - Bell_n(-3) )/6, where Bell_n(x) is n-th Bell polynomial.
a(n) = 0; a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n-1} binomial(n-1, k) * A357667(k).
PROG

(PARI) Bell_poly(n, x) = exp(-x)*suminf(k=0, k^n*x^k/k!);
a(n) = round((Bell_poly(n, 3)-Bell_poly(n, -3)))/6;
