a(n) is even for n >= 1. - Robert Israel, Oct 13 2023

Examples

			a(2) = 44 because the hafnian of
    7  5  3  2
    5  7  5  3
    3  5  7  5
    2  3  5  7
equals M_{1,2}*M_{3,4} + M_{1,3}*M_{2,4} + M_{1,4}*M_{2,3} = 44.

Conjecture: a(n) is prime only for n = 1, 2, and 3.
Conjecture is true because a(n) is even for n >= 4. This is because a(n) == A356492(n) (mod 2), and all but two rows of the matrix consist of odd numbers. - Robert Israel, Oct 13 2023

Examples

			For n = 1 the matrix M(1) is
    2
with permanent a(1) = 2.
For n = 2 the matrix M(2) is
    3, 2
    2, 3
with permanent a(2) = 13.
For n = 3 the matrix M(3) is
    5, 3, 2
    3, 5, 3
    2, 3, 5
with permanent a(3) = 271.
