Also, half of the number of two-dimensional threshold functions (A114146).
The line may not pass through any point. This is the "labeled" version - rotations and reflections are not taken into account (cf. A116696).
The number of ways to divide a (2n) X (2n) grid into two sets of equal size is given by 2*A099957(n). - David Applegate, Feb 23 2006
All terms are odd: the line that misses the grid contributes 1 to the total and all other lines contribute 2, 4 or 8, so the total must be odd.
What can be said about the 3-D generalization? - Max Alekseyev, Feb 27 2006

FORMULA
|
Let V(m,n) = Sum_{i=1..m, j=1..n, gcd(i,j)=1} (m+1-i)*(n+1-j); then a(n+1) = 2*(n^2 + n + V(n,n)) + 1. - Max Alekseyev, Feb 22 2006
a(n) = 4*n^2 - 6*n + 3 + 2*Sum_{i=2..n-1} (n-i)*(2n-i)*phi(i). - Chai Wah Wu, Aug 15 2021

EXAMPLE
|
Examples: the two sets are indicated by X's and o's.
a(2) = 7:
XX oX Xo XX XX oo oX
XX XX XX Xo oX XX oX
--------------------
a(3) = 29:
XXX oXX ooX ooo ooX ooo
XXX XXX XXX XXX oXX oXX
XXX XXX XXX XXX XXX XXX
-1- -4- -8- -4- -4- -8- Total = 29
--------------------
a(4)= 87:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXo XXXo XXXo XXoo XXoo
XXXX XXXo XXoo Xooo oooo XXoo Xooo oooo Xooo oooo
--1- --4- --8- --8- --4- --4- --8- --8- --8- --8-
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
XXXo XXXX XXXX XXXo XXXo
XXoo Xooo oooo Xooo XXoo
Xooo oooo oooo oooo oooo
--4- --8- --2- --4- --8- Total = 87.
