A341149
Irregular triangle read by rows T(n,k) in which row n lists n blocks where the m-th block consists of A000203(m) copies of A000041(n-m), with 1 <= m <= n.

COMMENTS
In the n-th row of the triangle the values of the m-th block are the number of cubes that are exactly below every cell of the symmetric representation of sigma(m) in the tower described in A221529 (see figure 5 in the example here).

EXAMPLE
Triangle begins:
1;
1,1,1,1;
2,1,1,1,1,1,1,1;
3,2,2,2,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1;
5,3,3,3,2,2,2,2,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1;
7,5,5,5,3,3,3,3,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1;
...
For n = 6 we have that:
Row 6 Row 6 of
m A000203(m) A000041(n-m) block(m) A221529
1 1 7 [7] 7
2 3 5 [5,5,5] 15
3 4 3 [3,3,3,3] 12
4 7 2 [2,2,2,2,2,2,2] 14
5 6 1 [1,1,1,1,1,1] 6
6 12 1 [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1] 12
.
so the 6th row of triangle is [7,5,5,5,3,3,3,3,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1] and the row sums equals A066186(6) = 66.
We can see below some views of two associated polycubes called "prism of partitions" and "tower". Both objects contains the same number of cubes (that property is also valid for n >= 1). For further information about these two associated objects see A221529.

of the tower. in the
top view.
.
Figure 5 shows the heights of the terraces of the tower, or in other words the number of cubes in the column exactly below every cell of the top view. For example: in the 6th row of triangle the first block is [7] because there are seven cubes exactly below the symmetric representation of sigma(1) = 1. The second block is [5, 5, 5] because there are five cubes exactly below every cell of the symmetric representation of sigma(2) = 3. The third block is [3, 3, 3, 3] because there are three cubes exactly below every cell of the symmetric representation of sigma(3) = 4, and so on.
Note that the terraces that are the symmetric representation of sigma(5) and the terraces that are the symmetric representation of sigma(6) both are unified in level 1 of the structure. That is because the first two partition numbers A000041 are [1, 1].
