Sum of coefficients of expansion of (1+x+x^2+x^3+x^4+x^5+x^6)^n.
a(n) is number of compositions of natural numbers into n parts < 7.
The compositions of n in which each natural number is colored by one of p different colors are called p-colored compositions of n. For n>=1, a(n) equals the number of 7-colored compositions of n such that no adjacent parts have the same color. - Milan Janjic, Nov 17 2011
Number of ways to assign truth values to n ternary disjunctions connected by conjunctions such that the proposition is true. For example, a(2) = 49, since for the proposition '(a v b v c) & (d v e v f)' there are 49 assignments that make the proposition true. - Ori Milstein, Dec 31 2022
Equivalently, the number of length-n words over an alphabet with seven letters. - Joerg Arndt, Jan 01 2023

Assuming the Collatz conjecture is true, any starting number eventually leads to a power of 2. A number in this sequence can never be the first power of 2 in a Collatz sequence except of course for the Collatz sequence starting with that number. For example, except for 8, 4, 2, 1, any Collatz sequence that includes 8 must also include 16 (e.g., 5, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1). - Alonso del Arte, Oct 01 2019

Except for 1, the largest n-th power with n digits. - Amarnath Murthy, Feb 09 2002
The 2002 comment by Amarnath Murthy should say more precisely "n-th power with *at most* n digits": a(22) has only 21 digits etc., a(44) has only 42 digits etc. - Hagen von Eitzen, May 17 2009
The compositions of n in which each natural number is colored by one of p different colors are called p-colored compositions of n. For n>=1, a(n) equals the number of 9-colored compositions of n such that no adjacent parts have the same color. - Milan Janjic, Nov 17 2011
To be still more precise than Murthy and von Eitzen: the subsequence of the largest n-th power with n digits is a finite sequence, bounded by 9 and 109418989131512359209. It is guaranteed that 10^n has n + 1 digits in base 10, and clearly 9^n < 10^n. With a(22), the number n - log_10 a(n) crosses the 1.0 threshold, and obviously the gulf widens further after that, meaning that for n > 21, m^n can have fewer than n digits or more than n digits but not exactly n digits. - Alonso del Arte, Dec 12 2012
Erasing the last digit of the sum a(n) + a(n+1) brings back a(n). - Eric Angelini, Feb 05 2024

In general, for the recurrence a(n) = a(n-1)*a(n-2)/a(n-3), all terms are integers iff a(0) divides a(2) and first three terms are positive integers, since a(2n+k) = a(k)*(a(2)/a(0))^n for all nonnegative integers n and k.

The compositions of n in which each natural number is colored by one of p different colors are called p-colored compositions of n. For n >= 1, a(n) equals the number of 11-colored compositions of n such that no adjacent parts have the same color. - Milan Janjic, Nov 17 2011
a(n), for n <= 4, gives the n-th row of Pascal's triangle (A007318); a(n), n >= 5 "sort of" gives the n-th row of Pascal's triangle, but now the binomial coefficients with more than one digit overlap. - Daniel Forgues, Aug 12 2012
Numbers n such that sigma(11*n) = 11*n + sigma(n). - Jahangeer Kholdi, Nov 13 2013

Warning: there is considerable overlap between this entry and the essentially identical A008776.
Shifts one place left when plus-convolved (PLUSCONV) with itself. a(n) = 2*Sum_{i=0..n-1} a(i). - Antti Karttunen, May 15 2001
Let M = { 0, 1, ..., 2^n-1 } be the set of all n-bit numbers. Consider two operations on this set: "sum modulo 2^n" (+) and "bitwise exclusive or" (XOR). The results of these operations are correlated.
To give a numerical measure, consider the equations over M: u = x + y, v = x XOR y and ask for how many pairs (u,v) is there a solution? The answer is exactly a(n) = 2*3^(n-1) for n >= 1. The fraction a(n)/4^n of such pairs vanishes as n goes to infinity. - Max Alekseyev, Feb 26 2003
Number of (s(0), s(1), ..., s(2n+2)) such that 0 < s(i) < 6 and |s(i) - s(i-1)| = 1 for i = 1,2,...,2n+2, s(0) = 3, s(2n+2) = 3. - Herbert Kociemba, Jun 10 2004
Number of compositions of n into parts of two kinds. For a string of n objects, before the first, choose first kind or second kind; before each subsequent object, choose continue, first kind, or second kind. For example, compositions of 3 are 3; 2,1; 1,2; and 1,1,1. Using parts of two kinds, these produce respectively 2, 4, 4 and 8 compositions, 2+4+4+8 = 18. - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, Aug 18 2006
In the compositions the kinds of parts are ordered inside a run of identical parts, see example. Replacing "ordered" by "unordered" gives A052945. - Joerg Arndt, Apr 28 2013
Number of permutations of {1, 2, ..., n+1} such that no term is more than 2 larger than its predecessor. For example, a(3) = 18 because all permutations of {1, 2, 3, 4} are valid except 1423, 1432, 2143, 3142, 2314, 3214, in which 1 is followed by 4. Proof: removing (n + 1) gives a still-valid sequence. For n >= 2, can insert (n + 1) either at the beginning or immediately following n or immediately following (n - 1), but nowhere else. Thus the number of such permutations triples when we increase the sequence length by 1. - Joel B. Lewis, Nov 14 2006
Let M = a triangle with (1, 2, 4, 8, ...) as the left border and all other columns = (0, 1, 2, 4, 8, ...). A025192 = lim_{n->oo} M^n, the left-shifted vector considered as a sequence. - Gary W. Adamson, Jul 27 2010
Number of nonisomorphic graded posets with 0 and uniform hasse graph of rank n with no 3-element antichain. ("Uniform" used in the sense of Retakh, Serconek and Wilson. By "graded" we mean that all maximal chains have the same length n.) - David Nacin, Feb 13 2012
Number of vertices (or sides) of the (n-1)-th iteration of a Gosper island. - Arkadiusz Wesolowski, Feb 07 2013
a(n) counts walks (closed) on the graph G(1-vertex; 1-loop, 1-loop, 2-loop, 2-loop, 3-loop, 3-loop, ...). - David Neil McGrath, Jan 01 2015
For n > 0, a(n) are the traces of the even powers of the adjacency matrix M of the simple Lie algebra B_3, tr(M^(2n)) where M = Matrix(row 1; row 2; row 3) = Matrix[0,1,0; 1,0,2; 0,1,0], same as the traces of Matrix[0,2,0; 1,0,1; 0,1,0] (cf. Damianou). The traces of the odd powers vanish.
The characteristic polynomial of M equals determinant(x*I - M) = x^3 - 3x = A127672(3,x), so 1 - 3*x^2 = det(I - x M) = exp(-Sum_{n>=1} tr(M^n) x^n / n), implying Sum_{n>=1} a(n+1) x^(2n) / (2n) = -log(1 - 3*x^2), giving a logarithmic generating function for the aerated sequence, excluding a(0) and a(1).
a(n+1) = tr(M^(2n)), where tr(M^n) = 3^(n/2) + (-1)^n * 3^(n/2) = 2^n*(cos(Pi/6)^n + cos(5*Pi/6)^n) = n-th power sum of the eigenvalues of M = n-th power sum of the zeros of the characteristic polynomial.
The relation det(I - x M) = exp(-Sum_{n>=1} tr(M^n) x^n / n) = Sum_{n>=0} P_n(-tr(M), -tr(M^2), ..., -tr(M^n)) x^n/n! = exp(P.(-tr(M), -tr(M^2), ...)x), where P_n(x(1), ..., x(n)) are the partition polynomials of A036039 implies that with x(2n) = -tr(M^(2n)) = -a(n+1) for n > 0 and x(n) = 0 otherwise, the partition polynomials evaluate to zero except for P_2(x(1), x(2)) = P_2(0,-6) = -6.
Because of the inverse relation between the partition polynomials of A036039 and the Faber polynomials F_k(b1,b2,...,bk) of A263916, F_k(0,-3,0,0,...) = tr(M^k) gives aerated a(n), excluding n=0,1. E.g., F_2(0,-3) = -2(-3) = 6, F_4(0,-3,0,0) = 2 (-3)^2 = 18, and F_6(0,-3,0,0,0,0) = -2(-3)^3 = 54. (Cf. A265185.)
(End)
Number of permutations of length n > 0 avoiding the partially ordered pattern (POP) {1>2, 1>3, 1>4} of length 4. That is, number of length n permutations having no subsequences of length 4 in which the first element is the largest. - Sergey Kitaev, Dec 08 2020
For n > 0, a(n) is the number of 3-colorings of the grid graph P_2 X P_(n-1). More generally, for q > 1, the number of q-colorings of the grid graph P_2 X P_n is given by q*(q - 1)*((q - 1)*(q - 2) + 1)^(n - 1). - Sela Fried, Sep 25 2023
For n > 1, a(n) is the largest solution to the equation phi(x) = a(n-1). - M. Farrokhi D. G., Oct 25 2023
Number of dotted compositions of degree n. - Diego Arcis, Feb 01 2024

Construct the power matrix T(n,j) = [A(n)^*j]*[S(n)^*(j-1)] where A(n)=(2,2,2,...) and S(n)=(0,1,0,0,...). (* is convolution operation.) Then a(n) = Sum_{j=1..n} T(n,j). - David Neil McGrath, Jan 01 2015

With the addition of "2, 3," at the beginning, this sequence gives terms (n + 3) through the first term greater than 2^n, for n odd, of the negabinary Keith sequence for 2^n, thus proving that with the exception of 2 itself, no odd-indexed power of 2 is a negabinary Keith number (see A188381). - Alonso del Arte, Feb 02 2012

Same as Pisot sequences E(1, 13), L(1, 13), P(1, 13), T(1, 13). Essentially same as Pisot sequences E(13, 169), L(13, 169), P(13, 169), T(13, 169). See A008776 for definitions of Pisot sequences.
The compositions of n in which each natural number is colored by one of p different colors are called p-colored compositions of n. For n>=1, a(n) equals the number of 13-colored compositions of n such that no adjacent parts have the same color. - Milan Janjic, Nov 17 2011
Numbers n such that sigma(13*n) = 13*n+sigma(n). - Jahangeer Kholdi, Nov 23 2013

FORMULA
|
G.f.: 1/(1-13*x).
E.g.f.: exp(13*x).
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} A001021(k)*binomial(n,k). It is well known that Sum_{k=0..n} (h-1)^k*binomial(n,k) = h^n. - Bruno Berselli, Aug 06 2013

EXAMPLE
|
For the fifth formula: a(7) = 1*1 + 12*7 + 144*21 + 1728*35 + 20736*35 + 248832*21 + 2985984*7 + 35831808*1 = 62748517. - Bruno Berselli, Aug 06 2013
