Abstract. In this short note we propose two determinantal representations for the number of subsequences without isolated odd terms are presented. One is based on a tridiagonal matrix and other on a Hessenberg matrix. We also establish a new explicit formula for the terms of this sequence based on Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind.
