This sequence counts polyominoes with exactly the symmetry group D_4 generated by horizontal and vertical reflections.
The subset of (2n)-ominoes with edge centers in this set are enumerated by A346799(n). - Robert A. Russell, Dec 15 2021
Polyominoes centered about square centers and vertices are enumerated by A351190 and A351191 respectively. - John Mason, Feb 15 2022

Examples

			For a(8)=4, the four octominoes with exactly fourfold symmetry and axes of symmetry parallel to the edges of the cells are a row of eight cells, two adjacent rows of four cells, a row of four cells with another four cells adjacent to its center cells, and a row of four cells with another four cells adjacent to its end cells (but not in the original row):

Formula

a(n) = A351190(n) + A346799(n/2) + A351191(n/4) if we accept the convention that Axxxxxx(y) = 0 for any noninteger y. - John Mason, Feb 15 2022

Comments

The number of free polyominoes of size 2n that have reflectional symmetry on a horizontal or vertical axis that coincides with the edges of some of the squares. The sequence is defined for 2n rather than n as odd-sized polyominoes cannot have the required symmetry.

Formula

a(2*n+1) = A151525(2*n+1), a(2*n) = A151525(2*n) + A182645(n) - A001168(n). - Andrew Howroyd, Dec 05 2018
If n odd, a(n) = A349329(n) + A346799(n), otherwise a(n) = A349329(n) + A346799(n) + A346800(n/2) + A351191(n/2). - John Mason, Mar 15 2023
