%H <a href="/index/Rec#order_06">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (1,1,0,-1,-1,1).

%F a(n) = round(n^2/6) - (0 if n = 0 mod 6, 1 else) = A056829(n)-A097325(n).

%F From _Colin Barker_, Jan 18 2015: (Start)

%F a(n) = round((-25 + 9*(-1)^n + 8*exp(-2/3*i*n*Pi) + 8*exp((2*i*n*Pi)/3) + 6*n^2)/36), where i=sqrt(-1).

%F G.f.: x^3*(1+x-x^2)*(1+x^2) / ((1-x)^3*(1+x)*(1+x+x^2)). (End)

%F a(n) = A001399(n-3) + A001399(n-4) + A001399(n-6) - A001399(n-7). - _R. J. Mathar_, Jul 14 2015

%e a(10) = 16 because the maximum number of triangles in a polyiamond of perimeter 10 is 16.
