%N E.g.f.: P(exp(x)-1) where P(x) is the g.f. of the partition numbers (A000041).

%C CONJECTURE: Sum_{n>=0} a(n)^m * log(1+x)^n/n! is an integer series in x for all integer m>0; see A167138 and A167139 for examples.

%C From _Peter Bala_, Jul 07 2022: (Start)

%C Conjecture: Let k be a positive integer. The sequence obtained by reducing a(n) modulo k is eventually periodic with the period dividing phi(k) = A000010(k). For example, modulo 16 we obtain the sequence [1, 1, 5, 15, 1, 7, 1, 7, 1, 7, ...], with an apparent period of 2 beginning at a(4).

%C More generally, we conjecture that the same property holds for integer sequences having an e.g.f. of the form G(exp(x) - 1), where G(x) is an integral power series. (End)
