COMMENT

The basic maximal arrangement is with a knight in each corner and any centers of edges. The remaining 16 squares are coupled together, so only half may be used.

FORMULA

a(n)=4*(n-3) for n>5

EXAMPLE

One of the maximal arrangements for a(8):

k-kkkk-k

-......-

k......k

k......k

k......k

k......k

-......-

k-kkkk-k

PROGRAM

(PARI) a(n)=local(r); r=4+4*max(0, n-6); if (n>3, r+=8); if (n==4, r-=4); r for (i=2, 40, print1(a(i)", "))
