For a definition and examples of this problem see the comment section of A276449.
The present sequence a(n) gives the number of 2-orbits of such 2-color boards with n squares of one color under C_4.

Examples

			n = 4: one of the two 2-orbits is (o white, + black)
+ o + o   o o o +
o o o o   + o o o
o o o o   o o o +
o + o +   + o o o,
and one can take the first one as a representative.
For n = 3 there are a(3) = 2 2-orbits, represented by
+ o o       o o o
o + o  and  + + +
o o +       o o o.
The orbit structure for n=3 is 1^0 2^2 4^20; see A276449(3) = 0, a(3) = 2, A276452(3) = 20.
For the 12 2-orbits for n=4, see the representatives given in the link.

The old name was: Number of ways to choose n points from an n X n grid so that they have 90-degree rotational symmetry.
Consider a square n X n grid with n^2 squares. Each of the n^2 squares comes in two colors.
(E.g., an n X n chessboard with only two black fields, or a binary n X n matrix).
There are N(n) = binomial(n^2,n) = A014062(n) such 2-color grids. We are interested in configurations where n squares are colored in one way, say black, and the remaining ones stay white. Only colored grids modulo rotation around some axis perpendicular to the board through its center are of interest. These rotations represent the cyclic group C_4. Under C_4 operations R(90)^k, k=1..4, there will only be orbits of order 1 (colored grids invariant under R(90)^1, hence any rotation) order 2 (two different grids each not invariant under R(90)^1 but R(90)^2 operation, transforming into each other) and order 4 (four different grids each not invariant under R(90)^k for k=1,2,3, but under R(4)^4, transforming into each other). The orbit structure is denoted by 1^(e(n,1)) 2^(e(n,2)) 4^(e(n,4)) with e(n, 2^j) nonnegative integers for j=0,1,2. One has Sum_{j=0,1,2} 2^j*e(n,2^j) = N(n), and Sum_{j=0,1,2} e(n,2^j) which is the total number of orbits, given in A276454(n).
For example, one of the four 1-orbits of 4 X 4 board. (o) white, (+) black:
+ o o +
o o o o
o o o o
+ o o + ,
an example of a 2-orbit,
+ o + o o o o +
o o o o + o o o
o o o o o o o +
o + o + + o o o ,
an example of a 4-orbit,
+ + + + o o o + o o o o + o o o
o o o o o o o + o o o o + o o o
o o o o o o o + o o o o + o o o
o o o o o o o + + + + + + o o o .
The present sequence a(n) gives the number of 1-orbits of such 2-colored boards with n squares of one color under C_4.

Examples

			a(4) = 4, the arrangements are as follows:
   + o o +   o + o o   o o + o   o o o o

You are permitted to put 5 or more adjacent stones in a line, but cannot count them as a group.
Each pair of stones has at most one group that counts going through them. - David A. Corneth, Aug 01 2016
a(n) >= n and a(n+m) <= a(n) + a(m), e.g., a(16) <= a(10) + a(6) = 28. Placing stones in a 4 X k rectangular array shows that a(3k) <= 4(k+2). Fekete's subadditive lemma shows that 1 <= lim_{n->oo} a(n)/n <= 4/3 exists. - Chai Wah Wu, Jul 31 2016
Limit_{n->oo} a(n)/n = 1. See arXiv link. - Chai Wah Wu, Aug 25 2016

Examples

			From _M. F. Hasler_, Jul 30 2016: (Start)
One can get n=3 groups using a(3) = 9 stones (O) as follows:
   O O O O     The 3 groups are:
   . O O .     (1) the first line,
   . O . .     (2) the second column,
   O O . .     (3) the antidiagonal.
