COMMENTS

Counts exceptional non-overlapping circles. These circles are exceptional because they are neither generated by encircling any case at level n-1 nor do they result from appending an external circle to any case at level n-1. When n=4 the case is (())(()).

EXAMPLE

a(8) = 56 because we can write A000081(9) - 2*(A000081(8)= 286 - 2*115 a(8) also = 56 because we know that 8=6+2=5+3=4+4=4+2+2=3+3+2=2+2+2+2 and these partitions contribute 20*1 + 9*2 + 4*5/2 + 4 + 3 + 1 cases.
