%N a(n) is the number of vertices in the diagram of the symmetric representation of sigma(n) with subparts.
%C Theorem: Indices of even terms give A028982. Indices of odd terms give A028983.
%C If A001227(n) is odd then a(n) is even.
%C If A001227(n) is even then a(n) is odd.
%C The above sentences arise that the diagram is always symmetric for any value of n hence the number of edges is always an even number. Also from Euler's formula.
%C For another version see A340833 from which first differs at a(6).
%C For the definition of subparts see A279387. For more information about the subparts see also A237271, A280850, A280851, A296508, A335616.
%C Note that in this version of the diagram of the symmetric representation of sigma(n) all regions are called "subparts". The number of subparts equals A001227(n).
%F a(n) = A340848(n) - A001227(n) + 1 (Euler's formula).

%p For n = 6 the diagram has 13 vertices so a(6) = 13.
%p On the other hand the diagram has 14 edges and two subparts or regions, so applying Euler's formula we have that a(6) = 14 - 2 + 1 = 13.

%p For n = 9 the diagram has 14 vertices so a(9) = 14.
%p On the other hand the diagram has 16 edges and three subparts or regions, so applying Euler's formula we have that a(9) = 16 - 3 + 1 = 14.
