A355992 Irregular table read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of k-sided polygons formed, for k>=3, in a square when straight line segments connect the four corner vertices to the points dividing the sides into n equal parts.

Comments

Up to n = 100 the maximum sided k-gon created is the 8-gon. It is plausible this is the maximum sided k-gon for all n, although this is unknown.

See A108914 for more images of the square.
