Row n contains the numbers obtained from the rooted tree with Matula number n in the following manner: partition the edges of the tree into subsets so that in each subset each edge has the same pair of endpoint degrees; row n contains the sizes of these subsets, listed in an arbitrary order.

Very often the terms of the sequence are denoted by m_{i,j}; see, for example, the Vukicevic reference.
The Maple program yields a more precise information, For example, for n=5 it gives the polynomial P(5) = 2xy^2 + x^2 y^2. A term bx^i y^j in such a polynomial means that the tree has b edges with endpoint degrees i,j.
The Matula 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.

EXAMPLE

Row 5 is 1,2. Indeed, the rooted tree with Matula number 5 is the path ABCD. The edge BC has endpoint degrees 2,2; both edges AB and CD have endpoint degrees 1,2.
Row 8 is 3. Indeed the rooted tree with Matula number 8 is the star with 4 vertices. Each of the 3 edges has endpoint degrees 1,3.
Row 987654321 is 4,7,3,1,4,5,2,2. Indeed, the Maple program yields P(987654321) = 4xy^2 + 7xy^3 + 3x^2y^3 + x^2y^2 + 4xy^5 + 5x^2y^5 + 2x^3y^5 + 2x^5y^5. The tree is shown in Fig. 2 of the Deutsch reference.
