%N Expansion of x*(1 - x + 2*x^2) / ((1 - x)*(1 - 2*x)).

%C a(n) = A000225(n)-1, a(0)=0, a(1)=1. Number of quasilinear weak orderings R on {1,...,n} that are weakly single-peaked w.r.t. the total ordering 1<...<n and for which {1,...,n} has exactly one maximal element for the quasilinear weak ordering R.

%C Essentially the same as A095121 and A000918. - _R. J. Mathar_, Jan 02 2018

%F G.f.: x*(1 - x + 2*x^2) / ((1 - x)*(1 - 2*x)).

%F a(n) = 2^n - 2 for n>1.

%F a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 2*a(n-2) for n>3. (End)

%F a(n) = A134067(n-2) for n >= 3. - _Georg Fischer_, Oct 30 2018
