June 2022 Solution:
The number of odd polyominoes is
0, 1, 3, 11, 35, 108, 380, 1348, 5014, 18223, 67634, 252849, 950346, 3602437, 13697333, 52293534, 200399576,
770410271, 2970369338, 11482572252
One way to obtain this sequence is by a slight modificationof Redelmeier’s algorithm for counting polyominoes. This algorithm generates each polyomino once, without repitition, and for every such polyomino the permutation can be explicitly computed.
