COMMENT

Number of nonisomorphic unrooted unicursal planar maps with n+2 edges and exactly one vertex of valency 1 (unicursal means that exactly two vertices are of odd valency). - Valery A. Liskovets (liskov(AT)im.bas-net.by), Apr 07 2002

Total number of vertices in rooted Eulerian planar maps with n+1 edges.

Half the number of ways to dog-ear every page of an n+1 page book. - Ron Hardin (rhhardin(AT)att.net), Jun 21 2002

Convolution of A052701(n+1) with itself.

Number of Motzkin lattice paths with weights: 1 for up step, 4 for level step and 4 for down step. - Wen-jin Woan (wwoan(AT)howard.edu), Oct 24 2004

The number of rooted bipartite n-edge maps in the plane (planar with a distinguished outside face). - Valery A. Liskovets (liskov(AT)im.bas-net.by), Mar 17 2005
