%N Number of q-partial fraction summands of the reciprocal of n-th cyclotomic polynomial.

%C Let Phi(n,q) be the n-th cyclotomic polynomial in q. The q-partial fraction decomposition of 1/Phi(n,q) is a representation of 1/Phi(n,q) as a finite sum of functions v(q)/(1-q^m)^t, such that m<=n and degree(v)<phi(m) (Euler's totient function A000010).

%e (i) a(3)=1 because 1/Phi(3,q)=(1-q)/(1-q^3);

%e (ii) a(6)=2 because 1/Phi(6,q)=(-1-q)/(1-q^3) + (2+2q)/(1-q^6).

%Y Cf. A051664 (Number of terms in n-th cyclotomic polynomial).
