%N a(n) = binomial(n,3)*2^(n-3).

%C Number of 3-dimensional cubes in n-dimensional hypercube. - _Henry Bottomley_, Apr 14 2000

%C With three leading zeros, this is the second binomial transform of (0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,...). - _Paul Barry_, Mar 07 2003

%C With 3 leading zeros, binomial transform of C(n,3). - _Paul Barry_, Apr 10 2003

%C Let M=[1,0,i;0,1,0;i,0,1], i=sqrt(-1). Then 1/det(I-xM)=1/(1-2x)^4. - _Paul Barry_, Apr 27 2005

%C If X_1,X_2,...,X_n is a partition of a 2n-set X into 2-blocks then, for n>2, a(n+1) is equal to the number of (n+3)-subsets of X intersecting each X_i (i=1,2,...,n). - _Milan Janjic_, Jul 21 2007

%C With offset 0, a(n) is the number of ways to separate [n] into four non-overlapping intervals (allowed to be empty) and then choose a subset from each interval. - _Geoffrey Critzer_, Feb 07 2009

%F For n>0, a(n+3) = 2*A082138(n) = 8*A080930(n+1).

%F From _Paul Barry_, Apr 10 2003: (Start)

%F G.f. (with three leading zeros): x^3/(1-2*x)^4.

%F With three leading zeros, a(n) = 8*a(n-1) - 24*a(n-2) + 32*a(n-3) - 16*a(n-4), a(0)=a(1)=a(2)=0, a(3)=1.

%F E.g.f.: (x^3/3!)*exp(2*x) (with 3 leading zeros). (End)

%F a(n) = Sum_{i=3..n} binomial(i,3)*binomial(n,i). Example: for n=6, a(6) = 1*20 + 4*15 + 10*6 + 20*1 = 160. - _Bruno Berselli_, Mar 23 2018

%F From _Amiram Eldar_, Jan 06 2022: (Start)

%F Sum_{n>=3} 1/a(n) = 6*log(2) - 3.

%F Sum_{n>=3} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = 54*log(3/2) - 21. (End)
