Number of 3 X n binary matrices avoiding simultaneously the right angled numbered polyomino patterns (ranpp) (00;1), (01;0), (10;0) and (11;0). An occurrence of a ranpp (xy;z) in a matrix A=(a(i,j)) is a triple (a(i1,j1), a(i1,j2), a(i2,j1)) where i1<i2, j1<j2 and these elements are in same relative order as those in the triple (x,y,z). - Sergey Kitaev, Nov 11 2004
Exponents n>1 for which 1 - x + x^n is reducible. - Ron Knott, Oct 13 2016
For the Collatz problem, these are the descenders' values that require division by 2. - Fred Daniel Kline, Jan 19 2017
For n > 3, also the number of (not necessarily maximal) cliques in the n-helm graph. - Eric W. Weisstein, Nov 29 2017

FORMULA
|
Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n/a(n) = sqrt(3)*Pi/18 + log(2)/6. - Amiram Eldar, Dec 10 2021
a(n) = 2*a(n-1) - a(n-2) for n >= 2.
E.g.f.: 2*exp(x)*(1 + 3*x). (End)
