%T 1998407

%N Number of isomorphism classes of separated dissections of an equilateral triangle into n nonoverlapping equilateral triangles.

%C A dissection into 5 triangles is impossible.

%C From table on p.11 of Drapal. The authors write: We enumerate all dissections of an equilateral triangle into smaller equilateral triangles. We confirm W. T. Tutte's claim that the smallest perfect dissection has size 15 and we find all perfect dissections up to size 20.

%C The meaning of "separated dissection" is defined at the end of the introduction of the Drapal and Hamalainen article, see link. - _Hugo Pfoertner_, Feb 17 2018
