A104456 Number of ways of partitioning the integers {1,2,..,4n-1} into two (unordered) sets such that the sums of parts are equal in both sets (parts in one of the sets hence sum up to n*(4n-1)). Number of solutions to {1 +- 2 +- 3+ ... +- 4n-1 = 0}. 3

Alois P. Heinz, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..250

FORMULA

a(n) is half the coefficient of q^(n*(4n - 1)) in product('1 + x^j', 'j'=1..4*n-1) for n >= 1.

n>=1, a(n)=(1/Pi)*2^(4n-1)*J(4n-1) where J(n) = integral(t=0, Pi/2, cos(t)cos(2t)...cos(nt)dt) - Benoit Cloitre, Sep 24 2006

EXAMPLE

a(2) = 4 since there are 4 ways of partitioning {1,2,3,4,5,6,7} into two sets of equal sum, namely {{1,2,5,6}, {3,4,7}}, {{1,3,4,6}, {2,5,7}}, {{2,3,4,5}, {1,6,7}}, {{1,2,4,7}, {3,5,6}}.

MAPLE

b:= proc(n, i) option remember; local m;

      m:= i*(i+1)/2;

      `if` (n>m, 0, `if` (n=m, 1, b(abs(n-i), i-1) +b(n+i, i-1)))

    end:

a:= n-> b(4*n-1, 4*n-2):

seq (a(n), n=1..30); # Alois P. Heinz, Nov 01 2011
