COMMENT

Same as number of strings over GF(3) of length n with trace 0 and subtrace 0.

FORMULA

a(n; t, s) = a(n-1; t, s) + a(n-1; t+2, s+2t+1) + a(n-1; t+1, s+t+1) where t is the trace and s is the subtrace.

G.f.: q*(21*q^4-21*q^3+12*q^2-5*q+1)/[(1-3q)(1+3q^2)(1-3q+3q^2)]. - Lawrence Sze, Oct 24 2004

EXAMPLE

a(3;0,0)=3 since the three ternary strings of trace 0, subtrace 0 and length 3 are { 000, 111, 222 }.
