COMMENT

The empty subset is not allowed, otherwise we would get a(2)=1. [From Alois P. Heinz (heinz(AT)hs-heilbronn.de), Sep 03 2009]

FORMULA

a(n) is the coefficient of x^3y in product(x^(-2k)+x^k(y^k+y^(-k)), k=1..n) for n>2.

EXAMPLE

For n=5 we have splittings 4/23/15, 4/5/123, 13/5/24, so a(5)=3.

MAPLE

A113039:=proc(n) local i, j, p, t; t:= 0, 0; for j from 3 to n do p:=1; for i to j do p:=p*(x^(-2*i)+x^(i)*(y^i+y^(-i))); od; t:=t, coeff(coeff(p, x, 3), y, 1); od; t; end;

with (numtheory): b:= proc() option remember; local i, j, t; `if` (args[1]=0, `if` (nargs=2, 1, b(args[t] $t=2..nargs)), add (`if` (args[j] -args[nargs] <0, 0, b(sort ([seq (args[i] -`if` (i=j, args[nargs], 0), i=1..nargs-1)])[], args[nargs]-1)), j=1..nargs-1)) end: a:= proc(n) local m; m:= n*(n+1)/2; `if` (n>2 and irem (m, 3)=0, b(m/3-1, m/3, m/3+1, n), 0) end: seq (a(n), n=1..42); [From Alois P. Heinz (heinz(AT)hs-heilbronn.de), Sep 03 2009]
