Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%N Number of partitions of {1...n} containing 4 detached pairs of consecutive integers, i.e., partitions in which only 1- or 2-strings of consecutive integers can appear in a block and there are exactly four 2-strings.
%C Number of partitions enumerated by A105481 in which the maximal length of consecutive integers in a block is 2.
%C With offset 4t, number of partitions of {1...N} containing 4 detached strings of t consecutive integers, where N = n + 4j, t = 2 + j, j = 0, 1, 2, ..., i.e., partitions of {1,...,N} in which only v-strings of consecutive integers can appear in a block, where v=1 or v=t and there are exactly four t-strings.

%F a(n) = binomial(n-4, 4)*Bell(n-5), which is the case r=4 in the general case of r pairs, d(n,r) = binomial(n-r, r)*Bell(n-r-1), which is the case t=2 of the general formula d(n,r,t) = binomial(n-r*(t-1), r)*Bell(n-r*(t-1)-1).
%e a(8) = 5 because the partitions of {1,...,8} with 4 detached pairs of consecutive integers are 1256/3478, 1256/34/78, 12/3478/56, 1278/34/56, 12/34/56/78.
