COMMENT

Number of symmetric non-crossing connected graphs on n equidistant nodes on a circle (it is assumed that the axis of symmetry is a diameter of the circle passing through a given node). Example: a(4)=5 because on the nodes A,B,C,D (axis of symmetry through A) the only symmetric non-crossing connected graphs are {AB,AC,AD), (AC,BC,DC), (AB,BC,CD,DA), (AB,BC,CD,DA,BD), (AB,BC,CD,DA,AC).

FORMULA

a(2k)=4^k*binom((3k-1)/2, k)/[2(k+1)], a(2k+1)=2a(2k). a(2k)=(1/2)A078531(k), a(2k+1)=A078531(k).

MAPLE

a := proc(n) if n mod 2 = 0 then 4^(n/2)*binomial((3*(n/2)-1)/2, n/2)/2/(n/2+1) else 2*4^((n-1)/2)*binomial((3*((n-1)/2)-1)/2, (n-1)/2)/2/((n-1)/2+1) fi end;
