Comments

The subset of nodes is contained in the top left-hand quarter of the rectangle and has nodal dimensions floor((n+1)/2) and 4 to capture all geometrically distinct counts.

The quarter-rectangle is read by rows.

The irregular array of numbers is:

...k......1.....2.....3.....4.....5.....6.....7.....8.....9....10....11....12

.n

.2.......21....15....11....10

.3......164...106....72....64....142...72....38....28

.4......888...695...607...602...780...385...258...270

.5.....5600..4795..4453..4412..4829..2792..2285..2556..4650..2036..1712..2248

.6....35971.30709.27591.26574.30070.18037.14507.15318.27638.13744.13851.17846

where k indicates the position of the start node in the quarter-rectangle.

For each n, the maximum value of k is 4*floor((n+1)/2).

Reading this array by rows gives the sequence.

Examples

			When n = 2, the number of times (NT) each node in the rectangle is the start node (SN) of a complete non-self-adjacent simple path is
SN  0  1  2  3  4  5  6
    7  8  9 10 11 12 13
NT 21 15 11 10 11 15 21
   21 15 11 10 11 15 21
To limit duplication, only the top left-hand corner 21 and the 15, 11 and 10 to its right are stored in the sequence, i.e. T(2,1) = 21, T(2,2) = 15, T(2,3) = 11 and T(2,4) = 10.
