COMMENT

a(n)=Sum(k*A134436(n,k),k=0..n-1).

REFERENCES

E. Barcucci, A. del Lungo and R. Pinzani, "Deco" polyominoes, permutations and random generation, Theoretical Computer Science, 159, 1996, 29-42.

FORMULA

a(n)=(1/4)(3n-2)(n-1)(n-1)! Rec. rel.: a(n)=(1/2)(3n-4)(n-1)! + (n-1)a(n-1); a(1)=0.

EXAMPLE

a(2)=1 because the horizontal domino has no cells in the 2nd row and the vertical domino has 1 cell in the 2nd row.

MAPLE

seq((1/4)*(3*n-2)*(n-1)*factorial(n-1), n = 1 .. 18)

CROSSREFS
