COMMENTS
The bisection {1,1,2,3,5,7,11,15,22,...} agrees with the initial terms of A008641, Number of partitions of n into at most 12 parts and also A008635, Molien series for A_12.
a(2n+1)=a(2n) for all n>0. If the partition {...,1} is a member of a(2n) then the partition {...,1,1} is a member of a(2n+1). - Robert G. Wilson v, Jun 09 2006
Number of partitions of n where all parts (except for possibly the first part) are even; see example. [Joerg Arndt, Apr 22 2013]
For n >= 2, a(n) = number of partitions p of n such that floor(n/2) is a part of p. For n >= 1, a(n) = number of partitions p of n such that ceiling(n/2) is a part of p. - Clark Kimberling, Feb 28 2014
From Gus Wiseman, Oct 28 2021: (Start)
If we insert zeros every three terms, this counts partitions of n such that n = floor(3*k/2), where k is the number of parts. This counts by sum rather than length. These partitions are ranked by A347452.
Also the number of integer partitions of n with alternating product 1, where the alternating product of a sequence (y_1,...,y_k) is Product_i y_i^((-1)^(i-1)). These are the conjugates of the partitions (ranked by A336119) described in Arndt's comment above. For example, the a(2) = 1 through a(10) = 7 partitions are:
11 111 22 221 33 331 44 441 55
1111 11111 2211 22111 2222 22221 3322
111111 1111111 3311 33111 4411
221111 2211111 222211
11111111 111111111 331111
22111111
1111111111
These partitions are ranked by A028982. The odd-length case is A035363 (shifted), which is also the version for sum instead of product. The multiplicative version (factorizations) is A347438.

FORMULA
a(n) = A000041(floor(n/2)). - Vladeta Jovovic, Jun 10 2006
G.f.: ( Sum_{n>=0, x^(2*n) / prod(k=1..n, 1-x^k ) ) / (1 - x). - Michael Somos, Mar 01 2014
EXAMPLE
For n=8, Floor[3n/2] is 12 and there are five partitions of 12 into 8 parts each in the range 1-8 inclusive, namely: {5,1,1,1,1,1,1,1}, {4,2,1,1,1,1,1,1}, {3,3,1,1,1,1,1,1}, {3,2,2,1,1,1,1,1} and {2,2,2,2,1,1,1,1}. Thus a(8)=5.
From Joerg Arndt, Apr 22 2013: (Start)
a(8) = a(9) = 5, counting the following partitions where all parts (except for possibly the first part) are even:
01: [ 2 2 2 2 ]
02: [ 4 2 2 ]
03: [ 4 4 ]
04: [ 6 2 ]
05: [ 8 ]
and
01: [ 3 2 2 2 ]
02: [ 5 2 2 ]
03: [ 5 4 ]
04: [ 7 2 ]
05: [ 9 ]
(End)
