A squared rectangle (which may be a square) is a rectangle dissected into a finite number of two or more squares. If no two squares have the same size, the squared rectangle is perfect. A squared rectangle is simple if it does not contain a smaller squared rectangle. The order of a squared rectangle is the number of constituent squares. - Geoffrey H. Morley, Oct 17 2012

A squared rectangle (which may be a square) is a rectangle dissected into a finite number, two or more, of squares. If no two of these squares have the same size the squared rectangle is perfect. A squared rectangle is simple if it does not contain a smaller squared rectangle, and compound if it does. The order of a squared rectangle is the number of constituent squares. Duijvestijn's perfect square of lowest order (21) is simple. The lowest order of a compound perfect square is 24. [Geoffrey H. Morley, Oct 17 2012]
See the MathWorld link for an explanation of Bouwkamp code. The Bouwkamp code for the squaring is (50,35,27)(8,19)(15,17,11)(6,24)(29,25,9,2)(7,18)(16)(42)(4,37)(33). [Geoffrey H. Morley, Oct 18 2012]

There is only one arrangement of 1 square tile: a 1 X 1 rectangle. There is also only 1 arrangement of 2 square tiles: a 2 X 1 rectangle. There are 2 arrangements of 3 square tiles: a 3 X 1 rectangle (three 1 X 1 tiles) and a 3 X 2 rectangle (a 2 X 2 tile and two 1 X 1 tiles).
Short notation for the 2 possible 3-tile solutions:
3 X 1: 1,1,1
3 X 2: 2,1,1
More examples see below.
The smallest tile is not always a unit tile, e.g., one of the solutions for 5 tiles is: 6 X 5: 3,3,2,2,2.
My definition of a unique solution is the "signature" string in this notation: the rectangle size for nonsquares and the list of coprime tile sizes sorted largest to smallest. Rotations and reflections of a known solution are not new solutions; rearrangements of the same size tiles within the same overall boundary are not new solutions. But reorganizations of the same size tiles in different boundaries are unique solutions, such as 4 X 1: 1,1,1,1 and 2 X 2: 1,1,1,1.
From Rainer Rosenthal, Dec 23 2022: (Start)
The above description can be abbreviated as follows:
a(n) is the number of (2+n)-tuples (p X q: t_1,...,t_n) of positive integers, such that:
0. p >= q.
1. gcd(t_1,...,t_n) = 1 and t_i >= t_j for i < j and Sum_{i=1..n} t_i^2 = p * q.
2. Any p X q matrix is the disjoint union of contiguous t_i X t_i minors, i = 1..n. (For contiguous minors resp. submatrices see comments in A350237.)
.
The rectangle size p X q may have gcd(p,q) > 1, as seen in the examples for 3 X 2 and 6 X 4. Therefore a(n) >= A210517(n) for all n, and a(6) > A210517(6).

A squared rectangle is a rectangle dissected into a finite number of integer-sized squares. If no two of these squares are the same size then the squared rectangle is perfect. A squared rectangle is simple if it does not contain a smaller squared rectangle or squared square. The order of a squared rectangle is the number of squares into which it is dissected.

Formula

a(n) = A002839(n) - A006983(n).
In "A Census of Planar Maps", p. 267, William Tutte gave a conjectured asymptotic formula for the number, a(n) of perfect squared rectangles of order n:
Conjectured: a(n) ~ n^(-5/2) * 4^n / (243*sqrt(Pi)). [Corrected by Stuart E Anderson, Feb 02 2024]
