FORMULA

a(n)= 6a(n-1)-11a(n-2)+6a(n-3)-a(n-4)=4*A001870(n-1). G.f.: -4*x*(-1+x)/(x^2-3*x+1)^2. [From R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Mar 18 2009]

EXAMPLE

If n=5 then the number of conjugated cycles composed of six carbons in (1,1)-nanotubes is 840 which is the fifth term in the sequence. Here n is the number of naphthalene units.

MAPLE

Kn11 := proc(n) if n <= 0 then n+2 ; else 3*procname(n-1)-procname(n-2) ; fi; end: Ksub11 := proc(n) if n = -1 then 1 ; elif n = 0 then 3 ; else Kn11(n)+procname(n-1) ; fi; end: a := proc(n) 4*add( Ksub11(j)*Kn11(n-3-j), j=-1..n-2) ; end: seq(a(n), n=0..20) ; [From R.
