Comments

Orthoplex polyominoes are connected sets of cells of regular tilings with Schläfli symbols {}, {4}, {3,4}, {3,3,4}, {3,3,3,4}, etc. These are tilings of regular orthoplexes projected on their circumspheres. Orthoplex polyominoes are equivalent to multidimensional polyominoes that do not extend more than two units along any axis, i.e., fit within a 2^d cube. Each member of a chiral pair is a reflection but not a rotation of the other.

Examples

			a(7)=8 because there are 8 pairs of chiral heptominoes in 2^4 space. See trunks 1, 6, 8, 12, 13, 19, 27, and 28 in the linked Trunk Generating Functions.

Formula

a(n) = A355047(n) - A355048(n) = (A355047(n) - A355050(n)) / 2 = A355048(n) - A355050(n).
