%N A359797 Cogrowth sequence of the lamplighter group Z_2 wr Z where wr denotes the wreath product.
%C A359797 a(n) is the number of words of length 2n in the letters a,t,t^(-1) that equal the identity of the lamplighter group Z_2 wr Z = <a,t | a^2=1, [a,t^(-k)at^k]=1 for all k >.
%C A359797 Walks on this group can be seen as operations on an infinite tape of 0's and 1's where each step is either a right shift, left shift or toggles the current element. a(n) is then the number of sequences of 2n such moves which return the tape to the initial position.
