Here the j-th "region" of the set of partitions of n (or more simply the j-th "region" of n) is defined to be the first h elements of the sequence formed by the smallest parts in nonincreasing order of the partitions of the largest part of the j-th partition of n, with the list of partitions in colexicographic order, where h = j - i, and i is the index of the previous partition of n whose largest part is greater than the largest part of the j-th partition of n, or i = 0 if such previous largest part does not exist. The largest part of the j-th region of n is A141285(j) and the number of parts is h = A194446(j).

Some properties of the regions of n:

- The number of regions of n equals the number of partitions of n (see A000041).

- The set of regions of n contain the sets of regions of all positive integers previous to n.

- The first j regions of n are also first j regions of all integers greater than n.

- The sums of all largest parts of all regions of n equals the total number of parts of all regions of n. See A006128(n).

- If T(j,1) is a record in the sequence then the leading diagonals of triangle formed by the first j rows give the partitions of n (see example).

- The rank of a region is the largest part minus the number of parts (see A194447).

- The sum of all ranks of the regions of n is equal to zero.

How to make a diagram of the regions and partitions of n: in the first quadrant of the square grid we draw a horizontal line {[0, 0],[n, 0]} of length n. Then we draw a vertical line {[0, 0],[0, p(n)]} of length p(n) where p(n) is the number of partitions of n. Then, for j = 1..p(n), we draw a horizontal line {[0, j],[g, j]} where g = A141285(j) is the largest part of the j-th partition of n, with the list of partitions in colexicographic order. Then, for n = 1 .. p(n), we draw a vertical line from the point [g,j] down to intercept the next segment in a lower row. So we have a number of closed regions. Then we divide each region of n in horizontal rectangles with shorter sides = 1. We can see that in the original rectangle of area n*p(n) each row contains a set of rectangles whose areas are equal to the parts of one of the partitions of n. Then each region of n is labeled according to the position of its largest part on axis "y". Note that each region of n is similar to a mirror version of the Young diagram of one of the partitions of s, where s is the sum of all parts of the region. See the illustrations of the seven regions of 5 in the Links section.

Note that if row j of triangle contains parts of size 1 then the parts of row j are the smallest parts of all partitions of T(j,1), (see A046746), and also T(j,1) is a record in the sequence and also j is the number of partitions of T(j,1), (see A000041). Otherwise, if row j does not contain parts of size 1 then the parts of row j are the emergent parts of the next record in the sequence (see A183152). Row j is also the partition of A186412(j).

Also triangle read by rows in which row r lists the parts of the last section of the set of partitions of r, ordered by regions, such that the previous parts to the part of size r are the emergent parts of the partitions of r (see A138152) and the rest are the smallest parts of the partitions of r (see example). - Omar E. Pol, Apr 28 2012

Also total number of largest parts in all partitions of n. - Vladeta Jovovic, Feb 16 2004

To see this, consider the properties of a partition related through conjugation, such as the total number of parts and the size of the largest parts. The sums over all of the partitions of n of these two properties are equal. The size of the smallest part and the number of largest parts are two such properties (this is immediate when looking at the Ferrers diagram). - Michael Donatz, Apr 17 2011

Starting with offset 1, = the partition triangle A026794 * [1, 2, 3, ...]. - Gary W. Adamson, Feb 13 2008

For n >= 1, a(n) = T(n+1,1) + T(n+2,2) + T(n+3,3)+ ... (sum along a falling diagonal) of the partition triangle A026794. - Bob Selcoe, Jun 22 2013

Triangle T(n,k) read by rows in which, from rows 1..n, if r = T(n,k) is a record in the sequence then the set of positive integers in every row (from 1 to n) is called a “region” of r. Note that n, the number of regions of r is also the number of partitions of r. The consecutive records "r" are the natural numbers A000027. The triangle has the property that, for rows n..1, the diagonals (without the zeros) are also the partitions of r, in juxtaposed reverse-lexicographical order. Note that a record "r" is the initial term of a row if such row contains 1’s. If T(n,k) is a record in the sequence then A000041(T(n,k)) = n. Note that if T(n,k) < 2 is not the last term of the row n then T(n,k+1) = T(n,k). The union of the rows that contain 1's gives A182715.

Here the "emergent parts" of the partitions of n are defined to be the parts (with multiplicity) of all the partitions that do not contain "1" as a part, removed by one copy of the smallest part of every partition. Note that these parts are located in the head of the last section of the set of partitions of n.

Also, here the "filler parts" of the partitions of n are defined to be the parts of the last section of the set of partitions of n that are not the emergent parts.

Also semiperimeter of the n-th region of the geometric version of the section model of partitions. Note that a(n) is easily viewable as the sum of two perpendicular segments with a shared vertex. The horizontal segment has length A141285(n) and the vertical segment has length A194446(n). The difference between these two segments gives A194447(n). See also an illustration in the Links section. For the definition of "region" see A206437.
