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

%C 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

%C 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

%C 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

%C 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
