FORMULA
G.f.: Product_{k>=1} 1/(1 - x^(k*(5*k-3)/2)).
a(n) ~ Gamma(1 + b/d) * zeta(3/2)^(2/3 + b/(3*d)) * d^(1/6 + b/(3*d)) * exp(3*Pi^(1/3) * zeta(3/2)^(2/3) * n^(1/3) / (2^(4/3)*d^(1/3))) / (sqrt(3)*2^(7/3 + 2*b/(3*d)) * Pi^(7/6 - b/(6*d)) * n^(7/6 + b/(3*d))) * (1 - (136*d^2 + 120*d*b + 3*b^2*(8 - 3*Pi*zeta(1/2)*zeta(3/2))) / (72 * d^(5/3) * Pi^(1/3) * (2*zeta(3/2))^(2/3) * n^(1/3))), where d = 5/2, b = -3/2. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Mar 11 2026
EXAMPLE
a(8) = 2 because we have [7, 1] and [1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1].
MAPLE
h:= proc(n) option remember; `if`(n<1, 0, (t->
`if`(t*(5*t-3)/2>n, t-1, t))(1+h(n-1)))
end:
b:= proc(n, i) option remember; `if`(n=0, 1, `if`(i<1, 0,
b(n, i-1)+(t-> b(n-t, min(i, h(n-t))))(i*(5*i-3)/2)))
end:
a:= n-> b(n, h(n)):
