COMMENTS

G.f. is reciprocal of g.f. of A039924.

Conjecture: a(n) is the number of compositions (a_1,a_2,...) of n with each a_i-a_(i-1) <= 1; cf. A034297. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Feb 09 2004

FORMULA

G.f.: 1/(Sum_{k>=0} x^(k^2)(-1)^k/(Product_{i=1..k} 1-x^i)).

EXAMPLE

1+x^2+2*x^4+4*x^6+7*x^8+13*x^10+23*x^12+...

PROG

(PARI) a(n)=if(n<0, 0, polcoeff(1/sum(k=0, sqrtint(n), x^k^2/prod(i=1, k, x^i-1, 1+x*O(x^n))), n))
