COMMENT
|
Form the 6 node graph with matrix A=[1,1,1,1,0,0; 1,1,0,0,1,1; 1,0,0,0,0,0; 1,0,0,0,0,0; 0,1,0,0,0,0; 0,1,0,0,0,0]. Then A099176 counts closed walks of length n at either of the degree 5 vertices.

FORMULA

G.f.: (1-x-2x^2)/((1-2x^2)(1-2x-2x^2)) a(n)=(3+sqrt(3))(1+sqrt(3))^n/12+(3-sqrt(3))(1-sqrt(3))^n/12+2^((n-4)/2)(1+(-1)^n) a(n)=A002605(n)/2+2^((n-4)/2)(1+(-1)^n).
