a(n)=A005418(n+1)-A016116(n+2) analogue of A006516(n)=A007582(n)-A000079(n)
a(n) is also the number of induced subgraphs with odd number of edges in the path graph P(n), with a(1)=0, a(2)=1,... [From Alessandro Cosentino (cosenal(AT)gmail.com), Feb 06 2009]

FORMULA
|
2^(n-1) - 2^[(n-1)/2] a(n+4)=6a(n+2)-8a(n), n=1,2,3,... a(1)=0, a(2)=1, a(3)=2, a(4)=6
a(n)=A122746(n-1), n>0. O.g.f.: x/((1-2x)(1-2x^2)). [From R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Aug 27 2008]
a(n+1) = A077957(n) + 2*a(n) with a(1)=0. a(n+2) = A000079(n+1) + 2*a(n) with a(1)=0 a(2)=1. - Yosu Yurramendi (yosu.yurramendi(AT)ehu.es), Aug 10 2008

EXAMPLE

a(11)=2^(11-1) - 2^[(11-1)/2] = 2^10 - 2^5 = 1024-32 =992
