COMMENTS

If X is an n-set and Y a fixed (n-3)-subset of X then a(n-3) is equal to the number of 2-subsets of X intersecting Y. - Milan Janjic, Aug 15 2007

Bisection of A165157. - Jaroslav Krizek, Sep 05 2009

a(n) is the number of (w,x,y) having all terms in {0,...,n} and w=x+y-1. - Clark Kimberling, Jun 02 2012

Numbers m >= 0 such that 8m+25 is a square. - Bruce J. Nicholson, Jul 26 2017

a(n-1) = 3*(n-1) + (n-1)*(n-2)/2 is the number of connected, loopless, non-oriented, multi-edge vertex-labeled graphs with n edges and 3 vertices. Labeled multigraph analog of A253186. There are 3*(n-1) graphs with the 3 vertices on a chain (3 ways to label the middle graph, n-1 ways to pack edges on one of connections) and binomial(n-1,2) triangular graphs (one way to label the graphs, pack 1 or 2 or ...n-2 on the 1-2 edge, ...). - R. J. Mathar, Aug 10 2017

This is the triangle equivalent of A294249 which requires matchstick-built patterns for squares 1 X 1, 2 X 2, ..., n X n. - John King, Apr 04 2019

a(n) is also the number of vertices of the quiver for PGL_{n+1} (see Shen). - Stefano Spezia, Mar 24 2020

Starting from a(2) = 7, this is the 4th column of the array: natural numbers written by antidiagonals downwards. See the illustration by Kival Ngaokrajang and the cross-references. - Andrey Zabolotskiy, Dec 21 2021

FORMULA

G.f.: x*(3-2*x)/(1-x)^3.

a(n) = A027379(n), n > 0.

a(n) = A000217(n) + A005843(n). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Sep 24 2008

If we define f(n,i,m) = Sum_{k=0..n-i} binomial(n,k)*Stirling1(n-k,i)*Product_{j=0..k-1} (-m-j), then a(n) = -f(n,n-1,3), for n >= 1. - Milan Janjic, Dec 20 2008

a(n) = A167544(n+8). - Philippe Deléham, Nov 25 2009

a(n) = a(n-1) + n + 2 with a(0)=0. - Vincenzo Librandi, Aug 07 2010

a(n) = Sum_{k=1..n} (k+2). - Gary Detlefs, Aug 10 2010

Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = 137/150. - R. J. Mathar, Jul 14 2012

a(n) = 3*n + A000217(n-1) = 3*n - floor(n/2) + floor(n^2/2). - Wesley Ivan Hurt, Jun 15 2013

a(n) = 3*A000217(n) - 2*A000217(n-1). - Bruno Berselli, Dec 17 2014

a(n) = A046691(n) + 1. Also, a(n) = A052905(n-1) + 2 = A055999(n-1) + 3 for n>0. - Andrey Zabolotskiy, May 18 2016

E.g.f.: x*(6+x)*exp(x)/2. - G. C. Greubel, Apr 05 2019
