This is the largest possible symmetry group that a polyomino can have.
Polyominoes with such symmetry centered about square centers and vertices are enumerated by A351127 and A346800 respectively. - John Mason, Feb 16 2022

Examples

			The monomino has eight-fold symmetry. The tetromino with eight-fold symmetry is four cells in a square. The pentomino with eight-fold symmetry is a cell and its four adjacent cells.

Polyominoes with n cells and at least one line of reflection symmetry. - Joshua Zucker, Mar 08 2008
This sequence can most readily be calculated by enumerating fixed polyominoes for three different axes of symmetry: 1) a line composed of the diagonals of cells, A346800, 2) a line composed of edges of cells, and 3) a line composed of lines connecting the centers of adjacent cells, A346799. For the second case, any fixed polyomino just touching the edge line is reflected on the other side, so that sequence is A001168(n/2) for even values of n and zero otherwise. These three sequences together include each achiral polyomino exactly twice. - Robert A. Russell, Aug 04 2021

Examples

			For a(4)=3, the achiral tetrominoes are a 2 X 2 square, a 1 X 4 rectangle, and a cell plus three cells adjacent to it (forming a shortened T).

This is one of three sequences needed to calculate the number of achiral polyominoes, A030227. The three sequences together contain exactly two copies of each achiral polyomino. This is the FL sequence in the Shirakawa link. The sequence can be quickly calculated using Redelmeier's method; each polyomino cell in the lowest row is counted as one, while all the other polyomino cells are counted as two. Jensen's transfer matrix method (see Knuth POLYNUM program) could be modified to enumerate this sequence for over 100 terms; one needs only to keep track of the number of polyomino cells in the original row.
John Mason has pointed out that a(n) is also the number of achiral (2n)-ominoes with twofold rotational symmetry centered at the center of an edge. Just add to each polyomino its reflection in its leftmost edge to obtain these, the subset of A056877 with edge centers. - Robert A. Russell, Dec 15 2021

Examples

			For a(5)=7, the polyominoes are:    X
X       X   XX   XX    X            X
XXX   XXX   X     X   XXX   XXXXX   X
X       X   XX   XX    X            X
