This is a general comment on all sequences of the form a(n) = [(2^k)-1]^n for all positive integers k. Example 1.1.16 of Stanley's "Enumerative Combinatorics" offers a slightly different version. a(n) in the number of functions f:[n] into P([k]) - {}. a(n) is also the number of functions f:[k] into P([n]) such that the generalized intersection of f(i) for all i in [k] is the empty set.

a(n) is the number of compositions of n elements among {0, 1, 2}; e.g., a(2) = 9 since there are the 9 compositions 0 + 0, 0 + 1, 1 + 0, 0 + 2, 1 + 1, 2 + 0, 1 + 2, 2 + 1, and 2 + 2. [From Adi Dani, Jun 21 2011; modified by editors.]

The compositions of n in which each natural number is colored by one of p different colors are called p-colored compositions of n. For n >= 1, a(n) equals the number of 3-colored compositions of n such that no adjacent parts have the same color. - Milan Janjic, Nov 17 2011
Explanation from David Applegate, Feb 20 2017: (Start)
Since the preceding comment appears in a large number of sequences, it might be worth adding a proof.
The number of compositions of n into exactly k parts is binomial(n-1,k-1).
For a p-colored composition of n such that no adjacent parts have the same color, there are exactly p choices for the color of the first part, and p-1 choices for the color of each additional part (any color other than the color of the previous one). So, for a partition into k parts, there are p (p-1)^(k-1) valid colorings.
Thus the number of p-colored compositions of n into exactly k parts such that no adjacent parts have the same color is binomial(n-1,k-1) p (p-1)^(k-1).
The total number of p-colored compositions of n such that no adjacent parts have the same color is then
Sum_{k=1..n} binomial(n-1,k-1) * p * (p-1)^(k-1) = p^n.
To see this, note that the binomial expansion of ((p - 1) + 1)^(n - 1) = Sum_{k = 0..n - 1} binomial(n - 1, k) (p - 1)^k 1^(n - 1 - k) = Sum_{k = 1..n} binomial(n - 1, k - 1) (p - 1)^(k - 1).

Form an array with m(0,n) = m(n,0) = 2^n; m(i,j) equals the sum of the terms to the left of m(i,j) and the sum of the terms above m(i,j), which is m(i,j) = Sum_{k=0..j-1} m(i,k) + Sum_{k=0..i-1} m(k,j). The sum of the terms in antidiagonal(n+1) = 4*a(n). - J. M. Bergot, Jul 10 2013
a(n) = A007051(n+1) - A007051(n), and A007051 are the antidiagonal sums of an array defined by m(0,k) = 1 and m(n,k) = Sum_{c = 0..k - 1} m(n, c) + Sum_{r = 0..n - 1} m(r, k), which is the sum of the terms to left of m(n, k) plus those above m(n, k). m(1, k) = A000079(k); m(2, k) = A045623(k + 1); m(k + 1, k) = A084771(k). - J. M. Bergot, Jul 16 2013
Define an array to have m(0,k) = 2^k and m(n,k) = Sum_{c = 0..k - 1} m(n, c) + Sum_{r = 0..n - 1} m(r, k), which is the sum of the terms to the left of m(n, k) plus those above m(n, k). Row n = 0 of the array comprises A000079, column k = 0 comprises A011782, row n = 1 comprises A001792. Antidiagonal sums of the array are a(n): 1 = 3^0, 1 + 2 = 3^1, 2 + 3 + 4 = 3^2, 4 + 7 + 8 + 8 = 3^3. - J. M. Bergot, Aug 02 2013
The sequence with interspersed zeros and o.g.f. x/(1 - 3*x^2), A(2*k) = 0, A(2*k + 1) = 3^k = a(k), k >= 0, can be called hexagon numbers. This is because the algebraic number rho(6) = 2*cos(Pi/6) = sqrt(3) of degree 2, with minimal polynomial C(6, x) = x^2 - 3 (see A187360, n = 6), is the length ratio of the smaller diagonal and the side in the hexagon. Hence rho(6)^n = A(n-1)*1 + A(n)*rho(6), in the power basis of the quadratic number field Q(rho(6)). One needs also A(-1) = 1. See also a Dec 02 2010 comment and the P. Steinbach reference given in A049310. - Wolfdieter Lang, Oct 02 2013
Numbers k such that sigma(3k) = 3k + sigma(k). - Jahangeer Kholdi, Nov 23 2013
All powers of 3 are perfect totient numbers (A082897), since phi(3^n) = 2 * 3^(n - 1) for n > 0, and thus Sum_{i = 0..n} phi(3^i) = 3^n. - Alonso del Arte, Apr 20 2014
The least number k > 0 such that 3^k ends in n consecutive decreasing digits is a 3-term sequence given by {1, 13, 93}. The consecutive increasing digits are {3, 23, 123}. There are 100 different 3-digit endings for 3^k. There are no k-values such that 3^k ends in '012', '234', '345', '456', '567', '678', or '789'. The k-values for which 3^k ends in '123' are given by 93 mod 100. For k = 93 + 100*x, the digit immediately before the run of '123' is {9, 5, 1, 7, 3, 9, 5, 1, 3, 7, ...} for x = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, ...}, respectively. Thus we see the digit before '123' will never be a 0. So there are no further terms. - Derek Orr, Jul 03 2014

a(n) is the number of faces of any dimension (vertices, edges, square faces, etc.) of the n-dimensional hypercube. For example, the 0-dimensional hypercube is a point, and its only face is itself. The 1-dimensional hypercube is a line, which has two vertices and an edge. The 2-dimensional hypercube is a square, which has four vertices, four edges, and a square face. - Kevin Long, Mar 14 2023
Number of pairs (A,B) of subsets of M={1,2,...,n} with union(A,B)=M. For nonempty subsets cf. A058481. - Manfred Boergens, Mar 28 2023
From Jianing Song, Sep 27 2023: (Start)
a(n) is the number of disjunctive clauses of n variables up to equivalence. A disjunctive clause is a propositional formula of the form l_1 OR ... OR l_m, where l_1, ..., l_m are distinct elements in {x_1, ..., x_n, NOT x_1, ..., NOT x_n} for n variables x_1, ... x_n, and no x_i and NOT x_i appear at the same time. For each 1 <= i <= n, we can have neither of x_i or NOT x_i, only x_i or only NOT x_i appearing in a disjunctive clause, so the number of such clauses is 3^n. Viewing the propositional formulas of n variables as functions {0,1}^n -> {0,1}, a disjunctive clause corresponds to a function f such that the inverse image of 0 is of the form A_1 X ... X A_n, where A_i is nonempty for all 1 <= i <= n. Since each A_i has 3 choices ({0}, {1} or {0,1}), we also find that the number of disjunctive clauses of n variables is 3^n.
Equivalently, a(n) is the number of conjunctive clauses of n variables. (End)

The convolution square root of this sequence is A000984, the central binomial coefficients: C(2n,n). - T. D. Noe, Jun 11 2002
With P(n) being the number of integer partitions of n, p(i) as the number of parts of the i-th partition of n, d(i) as the number of different parts of the i-th partition of n, m(i, j) the multiplicity of the j-th part of the i-th partition of n, one has a(n) = Sum_{i = 1..P(n)} p(i)!/(Product_{j = 1..d(i)} m(i, j)!) * 2^(n-1). - Thomas Wieder, May 18 2005

Sum of coefficients of expansion of (1 + x + x^2 + x^3)^n.
a(n) is number of compositions of natural numbers into n parts less than 4. For example, a(2) = 16 since there are 16 compositions of natural numbers into 2 parts less than 4.
The compositions of n in which each natural number is colored by one of p different colors are called p-colored compositions of n. For n >= 1, a(n) equals the number of 4-colored compositions of n such that no adjacent parts have the same color. - Milan Janjic, Nov 17 2011

Row sums of Pascal's triangle using the rule that going left increases the value by a factor of k = 3. For example, the first three rows are {1}, {3, 1}, and {9, 6, 1}. Using this rule gives row sums as (k+1)^n. - Jon Perry, Oct 11 2012

Numbers n such that sigma(5n) = 5n + sigma(n). In fact we have this theorem: p is a prime if and only if all solutions of the equation sigma(p*x) = p*x + sigma(x) are powers of p. - Jahangeer Kholdi, Nov 23 2013
From Doug Bell, Jun 22 2015: (Start)
Empirical observation: Where n is an odd multiple of 3, let x = (a(n) + 1)/9 and let y be the decimal expansion of x/a(n); then y*(x+1)/x + 1 = y rotated to the left.
Example:
  a(3) = 125;
  x = (125 + 1)/9 = 14;
  y = 112, which is the decimal expansion of 14/125 = 0.112;
  112*(14 + 1)/14 + 1 = 121 = 112 rotated to the left.

a(n) is number of compositions of natural numbers into n parts less than 6. For example, a(2) = 36, and there are 36 compositions of natural numbers into 2 parts less than 6.
The compositions of n in which each part is colored by one of  p different colors are called p-colored compositions of n. For n >= 1, a(n) equals the number of 5-colored compositions of n such that no adjacent parts have the same color.
