COMMENTS

From a posting by Hugh Montgomery to the Number Theory mailing list, Oct 05 2004: "Estermann, JLMS (1931), established an asymptotic formula for a(n). Page, PLMS (1935), gave a quantitative version of this, with an error term roughly (log n)^5 smaller than the main term. Walfisz, Zur additiven Zahlentheorie II, Math. Z. 40 (1936), 592-607, established what we know today as the "Siegel-Walfisz theorem" in a series of lemmas and used this new tool to give the formula for a(n) with an error term that is smaller by a factor (log n)^c for any c."

FORMULA

G.f.: (x^2+x^3+x^5+x^7+x^11+x^13+x^17+x^19+...)(x+x^2+x^3+x^5+x^6+x^7+x^10+x^11+x^13+x^14+x^15+x^17+x^19+...).

a(n+1) = SUM(A008966(k)*A010051(n-k+1): 1<=k<=n) for n>0. [From Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Nov 04 2009]

EXAMPLE

a(8) = 4: 8=2+6=3+5=5+3=7+1.

MATHEMATICA
