Number of squares on the perimeter of an (n+1) X (n+1) board. - Jon Perry, Jul 27 2003
Coordination sequence for square lattice (or equivalently the planar net 4.4.4.4).
Apparently also the coordination sequence for the planar net 3.4.6.4. - Darrah Chavey, Nov 23 2014
From N. J. A. Sloane, Nov 26 2014: (Start)
I confirm that this is indeed the coordination sequence for the planar net 3.4.6.4. The points at graph distance n from a fixed point in this net essentially lie on a hexagon (see illustration in link).
If n = 3k, k >= 1, there are 2k + 1 nodes on each edge of the hexagon. This counts the corners of the hexagon twice, so the number of points in the shell is 6(2k + 1) - 6 = 4n. If n = 3k + 1, the numbers of points on the six edges of the hexagon are 2k + 2 (4 times) and 2k + 1 (twice), for a total of 12k + 10 - 6 = 4n. If n = 3k + 2 the numbers are 2k + 2 (4 times) and 2k + 3 twice, and again we get 4n points.
The illustration shows shells 0 through 12, as well as the hexagons formed by shells 9 (green, 36 points), 10 (black, 40 points), 11 (red, 44 points), and 12 (blue, 48 points).
It is clear from the net that this period-3 structure continues forever, and establishes the theorem.
In contrast, for the 4.4.4.4 planar net, the successive shells are diamonds instead of hexagons, and again the n-th shell (n > 0) contains 4n points.
Of course the two nets are very different, since 4.4.4.4 has the symmetry of the square, while 3.4.6.4 has only mirror symmetry (with respect to a point), and has the symmetry of a regular hexagon with respect to the center of any of the 12-gons. (End)
Also the coordination sequence for a 6.6.6.6 point in the 3-transitive tiling {4.6.6, 6.6.6, 6.6.6.6}, see A265045, A265046. - N. J. A. Sloane, Dec 27 2015
Also the coordination sequence for 2-dimensional cyclotomic lattice Z[zeta_4].
Susceptibility series H_1 for 2-dimensional Ising model (divided by 2).
Also the Engel expansion of exp^(1/4); cf. A006784 for the Engel expansion definition. - Benoit Cloitre, Mar 03 2002
This sequence differs from A008586, multiples of 4, only in its initial term. - Alonso del Arte, Apr 14 2011
Number of 2 X n binary matrices avoiding simultaneously the right angled numbered polyomino patterns (ranpp) (00,0), (00;1) and (10;1). An occurrence of a ranpp (xy;z) in a matrix A=(a(i,j)) is a triple (a(i1,j1), a(i1,j2), a(i2,j1)) where i1 < i2 and j1 < j2 and these elements are in same relative order as those in the triple (x,y,z). - Sergey Kitaev, Nov 11 2004
Central terms of the triangle in A118013. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Apr 10 2006
Also the coordination sequence for the htb net. - N. J. A. Sloane, Mar 31 2018
This is almost certainly also the coordination sequence for Dual(3.3.4.3.4) with respect to a tetravalent node. - Tom Karzes, Apr 01 2020
Minimal number of segments (equivalently, corners) in a rook circuit of a 2n X 2n board (maximal number is A085622). - Ruediger Jehn, Jan 02 2021

Coordination sequence for 2-dimensional cyclotomic lattice Z[zeta_3].
Conjecture: This is also the maximum number of edges possible in a planar simple graph with n+2 vertices. - Dmitry Kamenetsky, Jun 29 2008
The conjecture is correct. Proof: For n=0 the theorem holds, the maximum planar graph has n+2=2 vertices and 1 edge. Now suppose that we have a connected planar graph with at least 3 vertices. If it contains a face that is not a triangle, we can add an edge that divides this face into two without breaking its planarity. Hence all maximum planar graphs are triangulations. Euler's formula for planar graphs states that in any planar simple graph with V vertices, E edges and F faces we have V+F-E=2. If all faces are triangles, then F=2E/3, which gives us E=3V-6. Hence for n>0 each maximum planar simple graph with n+2 vertices has 3n edges. - Michal Forisek, Apr 23 2009

N. J. A. Sloane, Jan 21 2018

Coordination sequence for Dual(3^3.4^2) tiling with respect to a tetravalent node. This tiling is also called the prismatic pentagonal tiling, or the cem-d net. It is one of the 11 Laves tilings. (The identification of this coordination sequence with the g.f. in the definition was first conjectured by Colin Barker, Jan 22 2018.)
Also, coordination sequence for a tetravalent node in the "krl" 2-D tiling (or net).
Both of these identifications are easily established using the "coloring book" method - see the Goodman-Strauss & Sloane link.
For n>0, this is twice A047386 (numbers congruent to 0 or +-2 mod 7).
Linear recurrence and g.f. confirmed by Shutov/Maleev link. - Ray Chandler, Aug 31 2023

Equivalently, the coordination sequence for a point of degree 8 in the tiling of the Euclidean plane by right triangles (with angles Pi/2, Pi/4, Pi/4). These triangles are fundamental regions for the Coxeter group (2,4,4). In the notation of Conway et al. 2008 this is the tiling *442. The coordination sequence for a point of degree 4 is given by A234275. - N. J. A. Sloane, Dec 28 2015

There are two types of point in this tiling. This is the coordination sequence with respect to a point of degree 3.

The coordination sequence with respect to a point of degree 4 (see second illustration) is simply 1, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, ..., the same as the coordination sequence for the 4.4.4.4 square grid (A008574). See the CGS-NJAS link for the proof.

Conjecture: For n>0, a(n)=6n if n even, otherwise 12n.

The conjecture can easily be shown to be true: The vertices at distance 2k consist of 3k 12-valent and 3k 4-alent vertices, and the vertices at distance 2k+1 consist of 6(k+1) 6-valent and 6(k+1) 4-valent vertices. - Charlie Neder, Apr 22 2019
