COMMENTS
The pruning partition of a tree is the reverse sequence of the number of vertices of degree 1, deleted at the successive prunings. By pruning we mean the deletion of vertices of degree 1 and of their incident edges. See the Balaban reference (p. 360) and/or the Todeschini-Consonni reference (p. 42).
The Matula-Goebel number of a rooted tree can be defined in the following recursive manner: to the one-vertex tree there corresponds the number 1; to a tree T with root degree 1 there corresponds the t-th prime number, where t is the Matula-Goebel number of the tree obtained from T by deleting the edge emanating from the root; to a tree T with root degree m>=2 there corresponds the product of the Matula-Goebel numbers of the m branches of T.

FORMULA
A198329(n) is the Matula-Goebel number of the rooted tree obtained by removing from the rooted tree with Matula-Goebel number n the vertices of degree one, together with their incident edges. Repeated application of this yields the Matula-Goebel numbers of the trees obtained by successive prunings. Finding the number of vertices of these trees and taking differences lead to the pruning partition (see the Maple program and the explanation given there).
EXAMPLE
Row 7 is 1,3 because the rooted tree with Matula-Goebel number 7 is Y, having 3 vertices of degree 1 and after the first pruning we obtain the 1-vertex tree.
The triangle starts: | Squared | Sum of squares (= A198334(n)).
