%C Let M be an infinite matrix with (1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, ...) in each column shifted down thrice from the previous column (for k>0). Then A054390 = lim_{n->infinity} M^n, the left-shifted vector considered as a sequence. - _Gary W. Adamson_, Apr 14 2010

%C Conjecture: Number of ways of partitioning n into distinct parts of A038754. - _R. J. Mathar_, Mar 01 2023
