A (n+1,n) pebbling move involves removing n + 1 pebbles from a vertex in a simple graph and placing n pebbles on an adjacent vertex. A two-player impartial (n+1,n) pebbling game involves two players alternating (n+1,n) pebbling moves. The first player unable to make a move loses. The sequence a(n) is also the minimum number of pebbles such that any assignment of those pebbles on a complete graph with 3 vertices is a next-player winning game in the two player impartial (k+1,k) pebbling game. These games are represented by A347637(3,n). - Joe Miller, Oct 18 2021

Number of 2 X n binary matrices avoiding simultaneously the right-angled numbered polyomino patterns (ranpp) (00;1), (01,1) and (11;0). An occurrence of a ranpp (xy;z) in a matrix A=(a(i,j)) is a triple (a(i1,j1), a(i1,j2), a(i2,j1)) where i1 < i2, j1 < j2 and these elements are in the same relative order as those in the triple (x,y,z). In general, the number of m X n 0-1 matrices in question is given by (n+2)*2^(m-1) + 2*m*(n-1) - 2 for m > 1 and n > 1. - Sergey Kitaev, Nov 12 2004

a(n) is the maximum number such that there exists an edge coloring of the complete graph with a(n) vertices using n colors and every subgraph whose edges are of the same color (subgraph induced by edge color) is planar. - Srikanth K S, Dec 18 2010
