COMMENTS

The k-th successive rank of a partition pi = (pi_1, pi_2, ..., pi_s) of the integer n is r_k = pi_k - pi'_k, where pi' denotes the conjugate partition. A partition pi is basic if the number of dots in its Ferrers diagram is the least among all the Ferrers diagrams of partitions with the same rank vector.

FORMULA

G.f.: sum(n>=0, x^(n^2) * prod(k=1..n, (1+x^k)/(1-x^k) ) ) [Given in Nolan et al. reference]. [Joerg Arndt, Apr 7 2011]

MAPLE

b := proc(n, d); option remember; if n=0 and d=0 then RETURN(1) elif n<=0 or d<=0 then RETURN(0) else RETURN(b(n-d, d)+b(n-2*d+1, d-1)+b(n-3*d+1, d-1)) fi: end: A066447 := n->add(b(n, d), d=0..n);

PROG

(Pari)

N=44; x='x+O('x^N); /* that many terms */

s=sum(n=0, N, x^(n^2)*prod(k=1, n, (1+x^k)/(1-x^k))); /* g.f. */

Vec(s) /* show terms */  /* Joerg Arndt, Apr 7 2011 */
