Number of partitions of n+1 where the number of parts is itself a part. Take a partition of n (with k parts) which does not contain 1, remove 1 from each part and add a new part of size k+1. - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, May 01 2006
Number of partitions where the largest part occurs at least twice. - Joerg Arndt, Apr 17 2011
From Lewis Mammel (l_mammel(AT)att.net), Oct 06 2009: (Start)
a(n) is the number of sets of n disjoint pairs of 2n things, called a pairing, disjoint with a given pairing (A053871), that are unique under permutations preserving the given pairing.
Can be seen immediately from a graphical representation which must decompose into even numbered cycles of 4 or more things, as connected by pairs alternating between the pairings. Each thing is in a single cycle, so this is a partition of 2n into even parts greater than 2, equivalent to a partition of n into parts greater than 1. (End)
Convolution product (1, 1, 2, 2, 4, 4, ...) * (1, 2, 3, ...) = A058682 starting (1, 3, 7, 13, 23, 37, ...); with row sums of triangle A171239 = A058682. - Gary W. Adamson, Dec 05 2009
Also the number of 2-regular multigraphs with loops forbidden. - Jason Kimberley, Jan 05 2011
Number of appearances of the multiplicity n, n-1, ..., n-k in all partitions of n, for k < n/2. (Only populated by multiplicities of large numbers of 1's.) - William Keith, Nov 20 2011
Also the number of equivalence classes of n X n binary matrices with exactly 2 1's in each row and column, up to permutations of rows and columns (cf. A133687). - N. J. A. Sloane, Sep 16 2013
The q-Catalan numbers ((1-q)/(1-q^(n+1)))[2n,n]_q, where [2n,n]_q are the central q-binomial coefficients, match this sequence in their initial segment of length n. - William J. Keith, Nov 14 2013
Starting at a(2) this sequence gives the number of vertices on a nim tree created in the game of edge removal for a path P_{n} where n is the number of vertices on the path. This is the number of non-isomorphic graphs that can result from the path when the game of edge removal is played. - Lyndsey Wong, Jul 09 2016
The number of different ways to climb a staircase taking at least two stairs at a time. - Mohammad K. Azarian, Nov 20 2016
Let 1,0,1,1,1,... (offset 0) count unlabeled, connected, loopless 1-regular digraphs. This here is the Euler transform of that sequence, counting unlabeled loopless 1-regular digraphs. A145574 is the associated multiset transformation. A000166 are the labeled loopless 1-regular digraphs. - R. J. Mathar, Mar 25 2019
For n > 1, also the number of partitions with no part greater than the number of ones. - George Beck, May 09 2019 [See A187219 which is the correct sequence for this interpretation for n >= 1. - Spencer Miller, Jan 30 2023]
Conjecture: Also the number of integer partitions of n - 1 that have a consecutive subsequence summing to each positive integer from 1 to n - 1. For example, (32211) is such a partition because we have consecutive subsequences:
1: (1)
2: (2)
3: (3) or (21)
4: (22) or (211)
5: (32) or (221)
6: (2211)
7: (322)
8: (3221)
9: (32211)
(End)
There is a sufficient and necessary condition to characterize the partitions defined by Gus Wiseman. It is that the largest part must be less than or equal to the number of ones plus one. Hence, the number of partitions of n with no part greater than the number of ones is the same as the number of partitions of n-1 that have a consecutive subsequence summing to each integer from 1 to n-1. Gus Wiseman's conjecture can be proved bijectively. - Andrew Yezhou Wang, Dec 14 2019

G.f.: Sum_{n>=0} x^(2*n) / Product_{k=1..n} (1 - x^k). - Joerg Arndt, Apr 17 2011
a(n) ~ Pi * exp(sqrt(2*n/3)*Pi) / (12*sqrt(2)*n^(3/2)) * (1 - (3*sqrt(3/2)/Pi + 13*Pi/(24*sqrt(6)))/sqrt(n) + (217*Pi^2/6912 + 9/(2*Pi^2) + 13/8)/n). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Feb 26 2015, extended Nov 04 2016

G.f.: A(q) = Sum_{n >= 0} q^(n^2)/( (1 - q)*Product_{k = 2..n} (1 - q^k)^2 ).
More generally, A(q) = Sum_{n >= 0} q^(n*(n+r))/( (1 - q) * Product_{k = 2..n} (1 - q^k)^2 * Product_{i = 1..r} (1 - q^(n+i)) ) for r = 0,1,2,.... (End)
