cp's OEIS Frontend

This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

Comments

Construction rule is same as for box and Vicsek fractals, but uses 6 boxes at initial stage (n = 1) and has only one symmetrical axis. The scale factor of these fractals is 1/3. The actual tetraflake fractals have scale factor of 1/2.
a(n) is the total number of sides at different lengths of a tetraflake-like fractal after n iterations. The perimeter (rounded down) is A235648(n). The total number of holes is A241271(n+1).

Formula

Conjecture from Colin Barker, Apr 21 2014: (Start)
a(n) = sqrt(2)*((3-sqrt(2))^n*(-1+sqrt(2))+(1+sqrt(2))*(3+sqrt(2))^n).
a(n) = 6*a(n-1)-7*a(n-2).
G.f.: 4*x*(-7*x+4) / (7*x^2-6*x+1). (End)
