COMMENT

Same as Pisot sequences E(1,3), L(1,3), P(1,3), T(1,3). Essentially same as Pisot sequences E(3,9), L(3,9), P(3,9), T(3,9). See A008776 for definitions of Pisot sequences.

Number of (s(0), s(1), ..., s(2n+2)) such that 0 < s(i) < 6 and |s(i) - s(i-1)| = 1 for i = 1,2,....,2n+2, s(0) = 1, s(2n+2) = 3. - Herbert Kociemba (kociemba(AT)t-online.de), Jun 10 2004

a(1) = 1, a(n+1) is the least number so that there are a(n) even numbers between a(n) and a(n+1). Generalization for the sequence of powers of k: 1,k,k^2, k^3, k^4,... There are a(n) multiples of k-1 between a(n) and a(n+1). - Amarnath Murthy (amarnath_murthy(AT)yahoo.com), Nov 28 2004

a(n) = sum of (n+1)-th row in Triangle A105728. - Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)lhsystems.com), Apr 18 2005

With p(n) = the number of integer partitions of n, p(i) = the number of parts of the i-th partition of n, d(i) = the number of different parts of the i-th partition of n, m(i,j) = multiplicity of the j-th part of the i-th partition of n, sum_{i=1}^{p(n)} = sum over i, and prod_{j=1}^{d(i)} = product over j one has: a(n)=sum_{i=1}^{p(n)} (p(i)!/(prod_{j=1}^{d(i)} m(i,j)!))*2^(p(i)-1) - Thomas Wieder (wieder.thomas(AT)t-online.de), May 18 2005

a(n) = A112626(n, 0). - Ross La Haye (rlahaye(AT)new.rr.com), Jan 11 2006

For any k>1 in the sequence,k is the first prime power appearing in the prime decomposition of repunit R_k, i.e. of A002275(k). - Lekraj Beedassy (blekraj(AT)yahoo.com), Apr 24 2006

a(n-1) is the number of compositions of compositions. In general, (k+1)^(n-1) is the number of k-levels nested compositions (e.g., 4^(n-1) is the number of compositions of compositions of compositions, etc.). Each of the n-1 spaces between elements can be a break for one of the k levels, or not a break at all. - Franklin T. Adams-Watters (FrankTAW(AT)Netscape.net), Dec 06 2006

Let S be a binary relation on the power set P(A) of a set A having n = |A| elements such that for every element x, y of P(A), xSy if x is a subset of y. Then a(n) = |S|. - Ross La Haye (rlahaye(AT)new.rr.com), Dec 22 2006

If X_1, X_2, ..., X_n is a partition of the set {1,2,...,2*n} into blocks of size 2 then, for n>=1, a(n) is equal to the number of functions f : {1,2,..., 2*n}->{1,2} such that for fixed y_1,y_2,...,y_n in {1,2} we have f(X_i)<>{y_i}, (i=1,2,...,n). - Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), May 24 2007
