Degrees of polynomials defined by p(n) = (x^(n+1)*p(n-1)p(n-3) + p(n-2)^2)/p(n-4), p(-4)=p(-3)=p(-2)=p(-1)=1. - Michael Somos, Jul 21 2004
Degrees of polynomial tau-functions of q-discrete Painlevé I, which generate sequence A095708 when q=2 (up to an offset of 3). - Andrew Hone, Jul 29 2004
Because of the Laurent phenomenon for the general q-discrete Painlevé I tau-function recurrence p(n) = (a*x^(n+1)*p(n-1)*p(n-3) + b*p(n-2)^2)/p(n-4), p(n) for n > -1 will always be a polynomial in x and a Laurent polynomial in a,b and the initial data p(-4),p(-3),p(-2),p(-1). - Andrew Hone, Jul 29 2004
Create the sequence 0,0,0,0,0,6,18,36,66,108,... so that the sum of three consecutive terms b(n) + b(n+1) + b(n+2) = A007531(n), with b(0)=0; then a(n) = b(n+5)/6. - J. M. Bergot, Jul 30 2013
Number of partitions of n into three kinds of part 1 and one kind of part 3. - Joerg Arndt, Sep 28 2015
First differences are A001840(k) starting with k=2; second differences are A086161(k) starting with k=1. - Bob Selcoe, Sep 28 2015
Maximum Wiener index of all maximal planar graphs with n+2 vertices. The extremal graphs are cubes of paths. - Allan Bickle, Jul 09 2022
Maximum Wiener index of all maximal 3-degenerate graphs with n+2 vertices. (A maximal 3-degenerate graph can be constructed from a 3-clique by iteratively adding a new 3-leaf (vertex of degree 3) adjacent to three existing vertices.) The extremal graphs are cubes of paths, so the bound also applies to 3-trees. - Allan Bickle, Sep 18 2022

Examples

			Polynomials: p(0)=x+1, p(1)=x^3+x^2+1, p(2)=x^6+x^5+x^3+x^2+2x+1, ...
a(12)=185:  A000217(13)=91 + a(9)=94 == 91+55+28+10+1 = 185. - _Bob Selcoe_, Sep 27 2015
a(3)=11: the 11 partitions of 3 are {1a,1a,1a}, {1a,1a,1b}, {1a,1a,1c}, {1a,1b,1b}, {1a,1b,1c}, {1a,1c,1c}, {1b,1b,1b}, {1b,1b,1c}, {1b,1c,1c}, {1c,1c,1c}, {3}. - _Bob Selcoe_, Oct 04 2015

Formula

G.f.: 1/((1-x)^3*(1-x^3)).
a(n) = -a(-6-n) = 3*a(n-1) -3*a(n-2) +2*a(n-3) -3*a(n-4) +3*a(n-5) -a(n-6).
The simplest recurrence is fourth order: a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-3) - a(n-4) + n + 1, which gives the g.f.: 1/((1-x)^3*(1-x^3)), with a(-4) = a(-3) = a(-2) = a(-1) = 0.
a(n) = n^3/18 + n^2/2 + 4*n/3 + 1 + 2/(9*sqrt(3))*sin(2*Pi*n/3). - Andrew Hone, Jul 29 2004
a(n) = n^3/18 + n^2/2 + 4*n/3 + 1 + (((n+1) mod 3) - 1)/9. - same formula, simplified by Gerald Hillier, Apr 14 2015
a(n) = (2*A000027(n+1) + 3*A000292(n+1) + A049347(n-1) + 1 + 3*A000217(n+1))/9. - R. J. Mathar, Nov 16 2007
From Johannes W. Meijer, May 20 2011: (Start)
a(n) = A144677(n) + A144677(n-1) + A144677(n-2).
a(n) = A190717(n-4) + 2*A190717(n-3) + 3*A190717(n-2) + 2*A190717(n-1) + A190717(n). (End)
3*a(n) = binomial(n+4,3) - floor((n+4)/3). - Bruno Berselli, Nov 08 2013
a(n) = A000217(n+1) + a(n-3) = Sum_{j>=0, n>=3*j} (n-3*j+1)*(n-3*j+2)/2. - Bob Selcoe, Sep 27 2015
a(n) = round(((2*n+5)^3 + 3*(2*n+5)^2 - 9*(2*n+5))/144). - Giacomo Guglieri, Jun 28 2020
a(n) = floor(((n+2)^3 + 3*(n+2)^2)/18). - Allan Bickle, Aug 01 2020
a(n) = Sum_{j=0..n} (n-j+1)*floor((j+3)/3). - G. C. Greubel, Oct 18 2021
E.g.f.: exp(x) + exp(x)*x*(34 + 12*x + x^2)/18 + 2*exp(-x/2)*sin(sqrt(3)*x/2)/(9*sqrt(3)). - Stefano Spezia, Apr 05 2023
