COMMENTS
In the notation of Nemirovsky et al. (1992), a(n), the n-th term of the current sequence is C_{n,m} with m=0 (and d=6). Here, for a d-dimensional hypercubic lattice, C_{n,m} is "the number of configurations of an n-bond self-avoiding chain with m neighbor contacts." (For d=2, we have C(n,0) = A173380(n); for d=3, we have C(n,0) = A174319(n); for d=4, we have C(n,0) = A034006(n); and for d=5, we have C(n,0) = A038726(n).) - Petros Hadjicostas, Jan 03 2019
