Antti Karttunen, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..3300

Formula

Let d = A000005; then a(n) = floor((d(n+1) - 1)/2) for even n and a(n) = floor((d(n+1) - 3) / 2) for odd n>1. - Ivan Neretin, Sep 07 2015

Example

8 = 2*2 + 2 + 2, this is the only representation, so a(8)=1.
23 = 2*7 + 2 + 7 = 3*5 + 3 + 5, two representations, so a(23)=2.

Mathematica

a[n_] := (r = Reduce[x >= y > 1 && n == x*y + x + y, {x, y}, Integers]; Which[r[[0]] === And, 1, r[[0]] === Or, Length[r], True, 0]);
Table[a[n], {n, 0, 105}] (* Jean-François Alcover, Jan 23 2018 *)
