This sequence is related to A007585 by a(n) = n*A007585(n) - Sum_{i=0..n-1} A007585(i). - Vincenzo Librandi, Aug 08 2010

In fact, this is the case d=4 in the identity n*(n*(n+1)*(2*d*n-2*d+3)/6) - Sum_{k=0..n-1} k*(k+1)*(2*d*k-2*d+3)/6 = n*(n+1)*(3*d*n^2-d*n+4*n-2*d+2)/12. - Bruno Berselli, Mar 01 2012

Bisection of A233329 (up to an offset). - L. Edson Jeffery, Jan 23 2014

Row index n begins with 2, column index k begins with 1.

Let R_n be the set of floor(n/2) rhombi in which the k-th rhombus r_{n,k} has interior angles about its vertices (or corners) given by the pair (k*Pi/n, (n-k)*Pi/n), n>=2, 1<=k<=floor(n/2). Let T be any tiling of the plane by tiles of R_n. For any tile t in T, let C_m(t) denote the m-th corona of t, m>=0. Equivalently, starting with any tile r in R_n fixed in the plane, we can compose a corona C_m(r) of r of any order m by tessellation using tiles of R_n. This leads to the following problem in the theory of tiles and its reduction for symmetry which seem to have not been addressed before in the literature. (See [Jeffery] for details and definitions.)

Problem 1: For r_{n,k} in R_n fixed in the plane, in how many ways can r_{n,k} be extended to an m-th corona of r_{n,k} using tiles of R_n?

Problem 2: From Problem 1, in how many ways can r_{n,k} be so extended if isometries different from the identity are not counted?

The problems are very difficult, and here A233332 gives a solution only for the simplest case m=1.

Row index n begins with 2, column index k begins with 1.

Let R_n be the set of floor(n/2) rhombi in which the k-th rhombus r_{n,k} has interior angles about its vertices (or corners) given by the pair (k*Pi/n, (n-k)*Pi/n), n>=2, 1<=k<=floor(n/2). Let T be any tiling of the plane. For any tile t in T, let C_m(t) denote the m-th corona of t, m>=0. Equivalently, starting with any tile r in R_n fixed in the plane, we can compose a corona C_m(r) of r of any order m by tessellation using tiles of R_n. This leads to the following problem in the theory of tiles and its reduction for symmetry which seem to have not been addressed before in the literature. (See [Jeffery] for details and definitions.)

Problem: For r_{n,k} in R_n fixed in the plane, in how many ways can r_{n,k} be extended to an m-th corona of r_{n,k} using tiles of R_n?

Array A233332 gives a solution for the case m=1. Here A233333 gives a solution for m=1 when rotations and reflections are not counted.

Let n be an integer, n >= 2, and let k in {1,...,floor(n/2)}. Let R_n be the set of floor(n/2) rhombi in which the k-th rhombus r_{n,k} in R_n has interior angles about its vertices (or corners) given by the pair (k*Pi/n, (n-k)*Pi/n). Let T be any tiling of the plane. For any tile t in T, let C_m(t) denote the m-th corona of t, m>=0. Equivalently, starting with any r in R_n fixed in the plane, we can compose a corona C_m(r) of r of any order m by tessellation using tiles of R_n. For any r in R_n fixed in the plane, a disjoint union of r with four tiles t_1,t_2,t_3,t_4 in R_n is called a "candidate." If no tiles overlap in a candidate, then that candidate is called an "r-core;" otherwise that candidate is rejected (since no corona of r can be constructed from it). For each r_{n,k} in R_n, and for m>0, every r_{n,k}-core can be extended to an m-th corona of r_{n,k} using tiles of R_n in a number of ways. For the case m=1, the array A233332 gives the number of ways that this can be done for each n and k. In the theory of tiles the general problem of counting these coronas and its reduction for symmetry seem to have not been addressed before in the literature.

The present array A233330 gives the number of r_{n,k}-cores associated with the coronas enumerated in A233332. The array A233331 gives the number of r_{n,k}-cores associated with the coronas enumerated in A233332 when isometries different from the identity are not counted.
