%N A060010 Number of 2n-move sequences on the 3 X 3 X 3 Rubik's Cube (only quarter-twists count as moves) that leave the cube unchanged.
%C A060010 I.e., closed walks of length 2n from a fixed vertex on the Cayley graph of the cube with {F, F^(-1), R, R^(-1), B, B^(-1), L, L^(-1) U, U^(-1), D, D^(-1)} as the set of generators. Alternatively, the n-th term is equal to the sum of the n-th powers of the eigenvalues of this Cayley graph divided by the order of the Rubik's cube group, ~4.3*10^19 (see A054434).
%e A060010 There are 12 closed walks of length 2: F*F^(-1), F^(-1)*F, R*R^(-1), R^(-1)*R, ..., D*D^(-1), D^(-1)*D.
%Y A060010 Cf. A054434, A061713, A080602.
