a(n) is the number of tuples (t_1, ..., t_n) with integers 2 <= t_1 <= ... <= t_n such that 3^n + 1 = Product_{i = 1..n} (3 + 1/t_i).

EXAMPLE
a(2) = 2: 3^2 + 1 = 10 can be expressed as (3 + 1/4) * (3 + 1/13) and as (3 + 1/5) * (3 + 1/8);
a(3) = 50: There are 50 representations of 3^3 + 1 = 28 with 10 <= min(t_i) <= 23 and 38 <= max(t_i) <= 8773. A product with minimal t_1 and maximal t_3 is 28 = (3 + 1/10) * (3 + 1/94) * (3 + 1/8773), maximal t_1 and minimal t_3 occur in 28 = (3 + 1/23) * (3 + 1/25) * (3 + 1/38).
