%N A206820 a(n) is the sum of the squares of the sizes of the conjugacy classes in the symmetric group A_n.
%C A206820 a(n) is the sum over all elements of Alt_n of the size of their conjugacy class. Each conjugacy class is thus counted as many times as its size, giving a sum of squares.
%e A206820 For n=5, a(5) = 1 + 12^2 + 12^2 + 15^2 + 20^2 = 914.
%e A206820 The class equation of A_5 is  1 + 12 + 12 + 15 + 20  = 60 = 5!/2
