%N A322038 Irregular triangle read by rows: for n >= 0, row n gives the coordination sequence for the tiling of a flat torus by a square grid with n points along each circuit.
%C A322038 More precisely, this is the coordination sequence for the quotient graph Z^2 / (nZ X nZ). The graph has n^2 vertices.
%C A322038 There are obvious generalizations: for example, Z^2 / (mZ X nZ) where m and n are not necessarily equal.

%F A322038 Since the underlying graphs are finite, the coordination sequences are polynomial P_n(x).
%F A322038 For n even, P_n(x) = (1+x)^2*(Sum_{i=0..(n-2)/2} x^i)^2;
%F A322038 for n odd, P_n(x) = (1 + 2*Sum_{i=0..(n-1)/2} x^i)^2.
