COMMENTS
An integer n can be partitioned into P(n) partitions P([n],i) where i=1,...,P(n) counts the partitions. The partition P([n],i) consists of T(n,i) integer parts t(i,j) with j=1,...,T(n,i). Now we perform on each t(i,j) an integer partition again and arrive at new partitions. Their parts can be partitioned again and so forth. We count such repeated partitions of n. One convention is necessary to avoid an infinite loop: The trivial partition P([n],1)=[n] will not be partitioned again but just counted once (and therefore we also have a(1)=1).

FORMULA
Let sum_{i=1}^P(n) denote the sum over all integer partitions P([n],i) of n. Let sum_{j=1}^T(i,j) denote the sum over all parts of the i-th integer partition. Then we have the recursive formula 1 if t(i,j)=n a(n) = sum_{i=1}^P(n) sum_{j=1}^T(i,j) { a(t(i,j)) else. E.g. a(4)=25 because [4] contributes 1, [1,3] contributes a(1)+a(3)=1+8=9, [2,2] contributes a(2)+a(2)=3+3=6, [1,1,2] contributes a(1)+a(1)+a(2)=1+1+3=5, [1,1,1,1] contributes a(1)+a(1)+a(1)+a(1)=1+1+1+1=4 which gives in total 25.
a(n) ~ c * d^n, where d = 2.69832910647421123126399866... (see A246828), c = 0.5088820425072641934222229579416714164592334575899644931509447692360546... . - Vaclav Kotesovec, Sep 04 2014
EXAMPLE
For the integers 1, 2, 3 and 4 we have
[1] -> 1,
thus a(1)=1.
[2] -> 1,
[1,1] => [1] ->, [1] -> 1.
thus a(2)=3.
[3] -> 1,
[1,2] => [1] -> 1, [2] -> 3,
[1,1,1] => [1] -> 1, [1] -> 1, [1] -> 1,
thus a(3)=8.
[4] -> 1,
[1,3] => [1] -> 1, [3] -> 8,
[2,2] => [2] -> 3, [2] -> 3,
[1,1,2] => [1] -> 1, [1] -> 1, [2] -> 3,
[1,1,1,1] => [1] -> 1, [1] -> 1, [1] -> 1, [1] -> 1,
thus a(4)=25.
