FORMULA
Asymptotics: a(n) = 2^(Theta(n^2)). This is Bachmann-Landau notation, that is, there are constants n_0, c, and d, such that for every n >= n_0 the inequality 2^{c n^2} <= a(n) <= 2^{d n^2} is satisfied. For more information see e.g. the Handbook of Discrete and Computational Geometry. - Manfred Scheucher, Sep 12 2019
