Apart from initial term(s), dimension of the space of weight 2n cusp forms for Gamma_0( 46 ).

Number of 6 X n 0-1 matrices avoiding simultaneously the right angled numbered polyomino patterns (ranpp) (00;1), (01;0), (11;0) and (01;1). 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 the same relative order as those in the triple (x,y,z). In general, the number of m X n 0-1 matrices in question is given by 2^m+2m(n-1). Cf. m=2: A008574; m=3: A016933; m=4: A022144; m=5: A017293. - Sergey Kitaev, Nov 13 2004

Except for 4, exponents e such that x^e-x^2+1 is reducible.

If Y and Z are 2-blocks of a (3n+1)-set X then a(n-1) is the number of 3-subsets of X intersecting both Y and Z. - Milan Janjic, Oct 28 2007

Terms are perfect squares iff n is a generalized octagonal number (A001082), then n = k*(3*k-2) and a(n) = (2*(3k-1))^2. - Bernard Schott, Feb 26 2023
