COMMENTS

For n >= 3, a(n) is the second Zagreb index of the graph obtained by joining one vertex of the cycle graph C[n] with each vertex of a second cycle graph C[n].
The second Zagreb index of a simple connected graph g is the sum of the degree products d(i)d(j) over all edges ij of g.

FORMULA
|
G.f.: 2*x*(13-10*x)/(1-x)^3.
Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = 823467/5539688 + sqrt(3)*Pi/138-3*log(3)/46 = 0.11643041... - R. J. Mathar, Apr 22 2024

EXAMPLE
|
a(4) = 140. Indeed, the corresponding graph has 12 edges. We list the degrees of their endpoints: (2,2), (2,2), (2,6), (2,6), (3,3), (3,3), (3,3), (3,3), (3,6), (3,6), (3,6), (3,6). Then, the second Zagreb index is 4 + 4 + 12 + 12 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 18 + 18 + 18 + 18 = 140.
