COMMENTS
Number of orbits of Aut(Z^7) as function of the infinity norm n of the representative integer lattice point of the orbit, when the cardinality of the orbit is equal to 6720. - Philippe A.J.G. Chevalier, Dec 28 2015
a(n) is the sum of the numerator and denominator of the reduced fraction resulting from the sum A000217(n-2)/A000217(n-1) + A000217(n-1)/A000217(n), n>1. - J. M. Bergot, Jun 10 2017
For n > 1, a(n) is also the number of (not necessarily maximal) cliques in the (n-1)-Andrásfai graph. - Eric W. Weisstein, Nov 29 2017
a(n+1) is the sum of the lengths of all the segments used to draw a square of side n representing the most classic pattern for walls made of 2 X 1 bricks, known as a 1-over-2 pattern, where each joint between neighboring bricks falls over the center of the brick below. - Stefano Spezia, Jun 05 2021

FORMULA
a(n) = (3*n+2)*(n-1)/2.
a(n+1) = n*(3*n + 5)/2. - Omar E. Pol, May 21 2008
a(n) = 3*n + a(n-1) - 2 for n>1, a(1)=0. - Vincenzo Librandi, Nov 13 2010
a(n) = A095794(-n). - Bruno Berselli, Sep 02 2011
G.f.: x^2*(4-x) / (1-x)^3. - R. J. Mathar, Sep 02 2011
a(n) = A055998(2*n-2) - A055998(n-1). - Bruno Berselli, Sep 23 2016
E.g.f.: exp(x)*x*(8 + 3*x)/2. - Stefano Spezia, May 19 2021
From Amiram Eldar, Feb 22 2022: (Start)
Sum_{n>=2} 1/a(n) = Pi/(5*sqrt(3)) - 3*log(3)/5 + 21/25.
Sum_{n>=2} (-1)^n/a(n) = 4*log(2)/5 - 2*Pi/(5*sqrt(3)) + 9/25. (End)
a(n) = Sum_{j=0..n-2} (2*n-j) = Sum_{j=0..n-2} (n+2+j), for n>=1. See the trapezoid link. - Leo Tavares, May 20 2022
