If a(1) were set to 3, the equivalent sequence would start 3, 9, 17, 38, 71, 146, 279,...

Alternatively starting from a(1)=4 we get 4, 10, 18, 39, 72, 150,..

Factor n; replace each prime(i) with i, take the conjugate partition, replace parts i with prime(i) and multiply out.

For all n >= 1, A001222(a(n)) = A061395(n), and vice versa, A061395(a(n)) = A001222(n).

Because the partition conjugation doesn't change the partition's total sum, this permutation preserves A056239, i.e., A056239(a(n)) = A056239(n) for all n.

(Similarly, for all n, A001221(a(n)) = A001221(n), because the number of steps in the Ferrers/Young-diagram stays invariant under the conjugation. - Note added Apr 29 2022).

Because this permutation commutes with A241909, in other words, as a(A241909(n)) = A241909(a(n)) for all n, from which follows, because both permutations are self-inverse, that a(n) = A241909(a(A241909(n))), it means that this is also induced when partitions are conjugated in the partition enumeration system A241918. (Not only in A112798.)

From Antti Karttunen, Jul 31 2014: (Start)

Rows in arrays A243060 and A243070 converge towards this sequence, and also, assuming no surprises at the rate of that convergence, this sequence occurs also as the central diagonal of both.

Each even number is mapped to a unique term of A102750 and vice versa.

Conversely, each odd number (larger than 1) is mapped to a unique term of A070003, and vice versa. The permutation pair A243287-A243288 has the same property. This is also used to induce the permutations A244981-A244984.

Taking the odd bisection and dividing out the largest prime factor results in the permutation A243505.

Shares with A245613 the property that each term of A028260 is mapped to a unique term of A244990 and each term of A026424 is mapped to a unique term of A244991.

Conversely, with A245614 (the inverse of above), shares the property that each term of A244990 is mapped to a unique term of A028260 and each term of A244991 is mapped to a unique term of A026424.

The Maple program follows the steps described in the first comment. The subprogram C yields the conjugate partition of a given partition. - Emeric Deutsch, May 09 2015

The Heinz number of the partition that is conjugate to the partition with Heinz number n. The Heinz number of a partition p = [p_1, p_2, ..., p_r] is defined as Product(p_j-th prime, j=1...r). Example: a(3) = 4. Indeed, the partition with Heinz number 3 is [2]; its conjugate is [1,1] having Heinz number 4. - Emeric Deutsch, May 19 2015

Number of ways to arrange n identical objects in a rectangle, modulo rotation.

Number of unordered solutions of x*y = n. - Colin Mallows, Jan 26 2002

Number of ways to write n-1 as n-1 = x*y + x + y, 0 <= x <= y <= n. - Benoit Cloitre, Jun 23 2002

Also number of values for x where x+2n and x-2n are both squares (e.g., if n=9, then 18+18 and 18-18 are both squares, as are 82+18 and 82-18 so a(9)=2); this is because a(n) is the number of solutions to n=k(k+r) in which case if x=r^2+2n then x+2n=(r+2k)^2 and x-2n=r^2 (cf. A061408). - Henry Bottomley, May 03 2001

Also number of sums of sequences of consecutive odd numbers or consecutive even numbers including sequences of length 1 (e.g., 12 = 5+7 or 2+4+6 or 12 so a(12)=3). - Naohiro Nomoto, Feb 26 2002

Number of partitions whose consecutive parts differ by exactly two.

a(n) depends only on prime signature of n (cf. A025487). So a(24) = a(375) since 24=2^3*3 and 375=3*5^3 both have prime signature (3,1). - Christian G. Bower, Jun 06 2005

Also number of partitions of n such that if k is the largest part, then each of the parts 1,2,...,k-1 occurs exactly twice. Example: a(12)=3 because we have [3,3,2,2,1,1],[2,2,2,2,2,1,1] and [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1]. - Emeric Deutsch, Mar 07 2006

a(n) is also the number of nonnegative integer solutions of the Diophantine equation 4*x^2 - y^2 = 16*n. For example, a(24)=4 because there are 4 solutions: (x,y) = (10,4), (11,10), (14,20), (25,46). - N-E. Fahssi, Feb 27 2008

Expanding the first comment: Number of rectangles with area n and integer side lengths, modulo rotation. Also number of 2D grids of n congruent squares, in a rectangle, modulo rotation (cf. A000005 for rectangles instead of squares; cf. A034836 for the 3D case). - Manfred Boergens, Jun 08 2021

Number of divisors of n that have an even number of prime divisors (counted with multiplicity), or in other words, number of terms of A028260 that divide n. - Antti Karttunen, Apr 17 2022

Neither this sequence nor its complement (A028260) contains any infinite arithmetic progression. - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, Sep 05 2008

A066829(a(n)) = 1. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jun 26 2009

These numbers can be generated by the sieving process described in A066829. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jul 01 2009

Lexicographically earliest sequence of distinct nonnegative integers with no term being the product of any two not necessarily distinct terms. The equivalent sequence for addition/subtraction is A005408 (the odd numbers), for exponentiation is A259444, and for binary exclusive OR is A000069. - Peter Munn, Mar 16 2018

The equivalent lexicographically earliest sequence with no term being the product of any two distinct terms is A026416. A000028 is similarly the equivalent sequence when A059897 is used as multiplicative operator in place of standard integer multiplication. - Peter Munn, Mar 16 2019

Coons and Borwein: "We give a new proof of Fatou's theorem: if an algebraic function has a power series expansion with bounded integer coefficients, then it must be a rational function. This result is applied to show that for any non-trivial completely multiplicative function from N to {-1,1}, the series sum_{n=1..infinity} f(n)z^n is transcendental over {Z}[z]; in particular, sum_{n=1..infinity} lambda(n)z^n is transcendental, where lambda is Liouville's function. The transcendence of sum_{n=1..infinity} mu(n)z^n is also proved." - Jonathan Vos Post, Jun 11 2008

Coons proves that a(n) is not k-automatic for any k > 2. - Jonathan Vos Post, Oct 22 2008

The Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the statement that for every fixed epsilon > 0, lim_{n -> infinity} (a(1) + a(2) + ... + a(n))/n^(1/2 + epsilon) = 0 (Borwein et al., theorem 1.2). - Arkadiusz Wesolowski, Oct 08 2013

For n > 0, also the number of partitions of n whose greatest part is even. [Edited by Gus Wiseman, Jan 05 2021]

Number of partitions of n+1 into an odd number of parts, the least being 1.

Suppose that c(0) = 1, that c(1), c(2), ... are indeterminates, that d(0) = 1, and that d(n) = -c(n) - c(n-1)*d(1) - ... - c(0)*d(n-1). When d(n) is expanded as a polynomial in c(1), c(2),..,c(n), the terms are of the form H*c(i_1)*c(i_2)*...*c(i_k). Let P(n) = [c(i_1), c(i_2), ..., c(i_k)], a partition of n. Then H is negative if P has an odd number of parts, and H is positive if P has an even number of parts. That is, d(n) has A027193(n) negative coefficients, A027187(n) positive coefficients, and A000041 terms. The maximal coefficient in d(n), in absolute value, is A102462(n). - Clark Kimberling, Dec 15 2016

Numbers n such that sum of odd divisors of n (A000593) is odd. - Omar E. Pol, Jul 05 2016

A187793(a(n)) is odd. - Timothy L. Tiffin, Jul 18 2016

If k is odd (k = 2m+1 for m >= 0), then 2^k = 2^(2m+1) = 2*(2^m)^2. If k is even (k = 2m for m >= 0), then 2^k = 2^(2m) = (2^m)^2. So, the powers of 2 sequence (A000079) is a subsequence of this one. - Timothy L. Tiffin, Jul 18 2016

The Heinz numbers of palindromic partitions are given by A265640. The Heinz number of a partition (y_1,...,y_k) is prime(y_1)*...*prime(y_k), giving a bijective correspondence between positive integers and integer partitions.

Also the number of integer partitions of n with a part greater than or equal to n/2. This is equivalent to Clark Kimberling's final comment above. The Heinz numbers of these partitions are given by A344414. For example, the a(1) = 1 through a(8) = 12 partitions are:
