a(n) is the largest number that is not the sum of distinct numbers of form kn+1, k >= 0. - David W. Wilson, Dec 11 1999
Sum of the nontriangular numbers between successive triangular numbers. 1, (2), 3, (4, 5), 6, (7, 8, 9), 10, (11, 12, 13, 14), 15, ... Sum of the terms in brackets. Or sum of n consecutive integers beginning with T(n) + 1, where T(n) = n(n+1)/2. - Amarnath Murthy, Aug 27 2005
Apparently this is also the splittance (as defined by Hammer & Simeone, 1977) of the Kneser graphs of the form K(n+3,2). - Felix Goldberg (felixg(AT)tx.technion.ac.il), Jul 13 2009
Row sums of triangle A159797. - Omar E. Pol, Jul 24 2009
The same results occur when one plots the points (1,3), (3,6), (6,10), (10,15), and so on, for all the triangular numbers and finds the area beneath. Take three consecutive triangular numbers and label them a, b, c; the area created is simply (b-a)*(b+c)/2. Thus for 6,10,15 the area beneath the line defined by the points (6,10) and (10,15) is (10-6)*(10+15)/2 = 50. - J. M. Bergot, Jun 28 2011
Let P = ab where a and b are nonequal prime numbers > 1. Let Q be the product of all divisors of P^n. Q can be expressed as P^k, where k = n*(n+1)^2/2. This follows from the fact that all divisors are of the form a^i*b^j, for i,j from 0 to n. An example is given below. In the more general case, where P is the product of m nonequal prime numbers, k = n*(n+1)^m/2. When m=3, the sequence is the same as A092364. - James A. Raymond & Douglas Raymond, Dec 04 2011
For n > 0: sum of n-th row in A014132, seen as a triangle read by rows. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Dec 12 2012
Partial sums of A005449. - Omar E. Pol, Jan 12 2013
a(n) is the sum of x (or y) coordinates for an n X n square lattice in the upper right quadrant of Z^2 whose corner points are (0, 0), (0, n), (n, 0), and (n, n). - Joseph Wheat, Feb 03 2018
a(n) is the number of permutations of [n+2] that contain exactly 2 elements which are not left-to-right minimal. E.g., the 9 permutations comprising a(2) are 2134, 2143, 3124, 3142, 4123, 4132, 2314, 2413, 3412. - Andy Niedermaier, May 07 2022

			Let P^n=6^2. The product of the divisors of 36 = 10077796 = 6^9, i.e., for n=2, k=9. - _James A. Raymond_ & Douglas Raymond, Dec 04 2011

For n >= 6, with K = (n-1)(n-2)/((n-5)(n-4)), for odd n, a(n) = K*a(n-2). For even n, a(n) = K*a(n-2) -(n-2)/(n-5). - Washington Bomfim, Aug 05 2008

From Ctibor O. Zizka, Nov 21 2014: (Start)
With offset 4, a(n) is the number of different patterns of the 2-color 4-partition of n.
P(n)_(k;t) gives the number of different patterns of the t-color, k-partition of n.
P(n)(k;t) = 1 + Sum(i=2..n) Sum(j=2..i) Sum(r=1..m) c(i,j)*v_r*F_r(X_1,...,X_i).
P(n;i;j) = Sum(r=1..m) c_(i,j)*v_r*F_r(X_1,...,X_i).
m partition number of i.
c_(i,j) number of different coloring patterns on the r-th form (X_1,...,X_i) of i-partition with j-colors.
v_r number of i-partitions of n of the r-th form (X_1,...,X_i).
F_r(X_1,...,X_i) number of different patterns of the r-th form i-partition of n.
Some simple results:
  P(1)(k;t)=1, P(2)(k;t)=2, P(3)(k;t)=4, P(4)(k;t)=11, etc.
  P(n;1;1) = P(n;n;n) = 1 for all n;
  P(n;2;2) = floor(n/2) (A004526);
  P(n;3;2) = (n*n - 2*n + n mod 2)/4 (A002620).
This sequence is a(n) = P(n;4;2).
2-coloring of 4-partition is (A,B,A,B) or (B,A,B,A).
Each 4-partition of n has one of the form (X_1,X_1,X_1,X_1),(X_1,X_1,X_1,X_2), (X_1,X_1,X_2,X_2),(X_1,X_1,X_2,X_3),(X_1,X_2,X_3,X_4).
The number of forms is m=5 which is the partition number of k=4.
Partition form (X_1,X_1,X_1,X_1) gives 1 pattern ((X_1A,X_1B,X_1A,X_1B), (X_1,X_1,X_1,X_2) gives 2 patterns, (X_1,X_1,X_2,X_2) gives 4 patterns, (X_1,X_1,X_2,X_3) gives 6 patterns and (X_1,X_2,X_3,X_4) gives 12 patterns.
Thus a(n) = P(n;4;2) = 1*1*v_1 + 1*2*v_2 + 1*4*v_3 + 1*6*v_4 + 1*12*v_5 where v_r is the number of different 4-partitions of the r-th form (X_1,X_2,X_3,X_4) for a given n.
Example:
The 4-partitions of 8 are (2,2,2,2), (1,1,1,5), (1,1,3,3), (1,1,2,4), and (1,2,2,3):
  (2,2,2,2) 1 pattern
  (1,1,1,5), (1,1,5,1) 2 patterns
  (1,1,3,3), (1,3,3,1), (3,1,1,3), (1,3,1,3) 4 patterns
  (1,1,2,4), (1,1,4,2), (1,2,1,4), (1,2,4,1), (1,4,1,2), (2,1,1,4) 6 patterns
  (2,2,1,3), (2,2,3,1), (2,1,2,3), (2,1,3,2), (2,3,2,1), (1,2,2,3) 6 patterns
Thus a(8) = P(8,4,2) = 1 + 2 + 4 + 6 + 6 = 19. (End)

Nodes are unlabeled, each node has out-degree <= 3.
Steric, or including stereoisomers, means that the children of a node are taken in a certain cyclic order. If the children are rotated it is still the same tree, but any other permutation yields a different tree. See A000598 for the analogous sequence with stereoisomers not counted.
Other descriptions of this sequence: steric planted trees with n nodes; total number of monosubstituted alkanes C(n)H(2n+1)-X with n carbon atoms.
Let the entries in the nine columns of Blair and Henze's Table I (JACS 54 (1932), p. 1098) be denoted by Ps(n), Pn(n), Ss(n), Sn(n), Ts(n), Tn(n), As(n), An(n), T(n) respectively (here P = Primary, S = Secondary, T = Tertiary, s = stereoisomers, n = non-stereoisomers and the last column T(n) gives total).
Then Ps (and As) = A000620, Pn (and An, Sn) = A000621, Ss = A000622, Ts = A000623, Tn = A000624, T = this sequence. Recurrences generating these sequences are given in the Maple program in A000620.

Enumerates certain paraffins.
a(n) is the (n+1)st (n+3)-gonal number. - Floor van Lamoen, Oct 20 2001
Sum of n terms of an arithmetic progression with the first term 1 and the common difference n: a(1)=1, a(2) = 1+3, a(3) = 1+4+7, a(4) = 1+5+9+13, etc. - Amarnath Murthy, Mar 25 2004
This is identical to: first triangular number A000217, 2nd square number A000290, 3rd pentagonal number A000326, 4th hexagonal number A000384, 5th heptagonal number A000566, 6th octagonal number A000567, ..., (n+1)-th (n+3)-gonal number = main diagonal of rectangular array T(n,k) of polygonal numbers, by diagonals, referred to in A086271. - Jonathan Vos Post, Dec 19 2007
Also (n + 1)! times the determinant of the n X n matrix given by m(i,j) = (i+1)/i if i=j and otherwise 1. For example, (6 + 1)!*Det[{{2,1,1,1,1,1}, {1,3/2,1,1,1,1},{1,1,4/3,1,1,1}, {1,1,1,5/4,1,1}, {1,1,1,1,6/5,1}, {1,1,1,1,1,7/6}}] = 154 = a(6). - John M. Campbell, May 20 2011
a(n-1) = N_2(n), n>=1, is the number of 2-faces of n planes in generic position in three-dimensional space. See comment under A000125 for general arrangement. Comment to Arnold's problem 1990-11, see the Arnold reference, p. 506. - Wolfdieter Lang, May 27 2011
For n>2, a(n) is 2 * (average cycle weight of primitive Hamiltonian cycles on a simply weighted K_n) (see link). - Jon Perry, Nov 23 2014
a(n) is the partial sums of A104249. - J. M. Bergot, Dec 28 2014
Sum of the numbers in the 1st column of an n X n square array whose elements are the numbers from 1..n^2, listed in increasing order by rows. - Wesley Ivan Hurt, May 17 2021
From Enrique Navarrete, Mar 27 2023: (Start)
a(n) is the number of ordered set partitions of an (n+1)-set into 2 sets such that the first set has 0, 1, or 2 elements, the second set has no restrictions, and we choose an element from the second set. For n=4, the a(4) = 55 set partitions of [5] are the following (where the element selected from the second set is in parentheses):
   { }, {(1), 2, 3, 4, 5}  (5 of these);
   {1}, {(2), 3, 4, 5}   (20 of these);
   {1, 2}, {(3), 4, 5}   (30 of these). (End)
