A125759 Number of n-indecomposable polyominoes. 7

%S 1,6,34,448,13384,684236,52267569

%N Number of n-indecomposable polyominoes.

%C A polyomino is called n-indecomposable if it cannot be partitioned (along cell boundaries) into two or more polyominoes each with at least n cells.

%C MacKinnon incorrectly implies that the sequence is 1,6,44.

%C MacKinnon only allows polyominoes with >= n cells, leading to A125709 and A125753.

%C The polyominoes with < 2n cells are uninteresting, leading to A126742 and A126743.

%C There is a sense in which n-decomposable polyominoes with >3n-2 cells are also uninteresting: they are precisely the "n-spiders", where an n-spider is a polyomino with a cell whose removal splits it into 4 components each with <n cells. - Peter Pleasants, Feb 18 2007
