First differences of A231348.
Observation: the row sums of the first seven rows coincide with the first seven elements of A199923.
Is A199923 the row sums of this triangle?

The D-toothpicks placed in northwest or northeast direction both are prohibited, except in the substructures in which the symmetry could be broken, so a(44) = 509, not 507. For another version with broken symmetry in some substructures see A233764. See also A231348, a simpler cellular automaton based in triangles which has essentially a similar structure.

This arises from a hybrid cellular automaton on a triangular grid formed of I-toothpicks (A160164) and V-toothpicks (A161206).
The surprising fact is that after 2^k stages the structure looks like a concave pentagon, which is formed essentially by an equilateral triangle (E) surrounded by two quadrilaterals (Q1 and Q2), both with their largest sides in vertical position, as shown below:
.
* *
* * * *
* * * *
* * *
* Q1 * Q2 *
* * * *
* * * *
* * * *
* * * *
* * E * *
* * * *
* * * *
** **
* * * * * * * * * *
.
Note that for n >> 1 both quadrilaterals look like right triangles.
Every polygon has a slight resemblance to Sierpinsky's triangle, but here the structure is much more complex.
For the construction of the sequence the rules are as follows:
On the infinite triangular grid at stage 0 there are no toothpicks, so a(0) = 0.
At stage 1 we place an I-toothpick formed of two single toothpicks in vertical position, so a(1) = 1.
For the next n generation we have that:
If n is even then at every free end of the structure we add a V-toothpick, formed of two single toothpicks, with its central vertex directed upward, like a gable roof.
If n is odd then we add I-toothpicks in vertical position (see the example).
a(n) gives the total number of I-toothpicks and V-toothpicks in the structure after the n-th stage.
A327331 (the first differences) gives the number of elements added at the n-th stage.
2*a(n) gives the total number of single toothpicks of length 1 after the n-th stage.
The structure contains many kinds of polygonal regions, for example: triangles, trapezes, parallelograms, regular hexagons, concave hexagons, concave decagons, concave 12-gons, concave 18-gons, concave 20-gons, and other polygons.
The structure is almost identical to the structure of A327332, but a little larger at the upper edge.
The behavior seems to suggest that this sequence can be calculated with a formula, in the same way as A139250, but that is only a conjecture.
The "word" of this cellular automaton is "ab". For more information about the word of cellular automata see A296612.
For another version, very similar, starting with a V-toothpick, see A327332, which it appears that shares infinitely many terms with this sequence.

Examples

			Illustration of initial terms:
.
               |      /|\     |/|\|
               |       |      | | |
                      / \     |/ \|
                              |   |
n   :  0       1       2        3
a(n):  0       1       3        7
After three generations there are five I-toothpicks and two V-toothpicks in the structure, so a(3) = 5 + 2 = 7 (note that in total there are 2*a(3) = 2*7 = 14 single toothpicks of length 1).
