COMMENTS
a(n) is the number of factorizations finer than (2*3*...*n) in the poset of factorizations of n! into factors > 1, ordered by refinement.
EXAMPLE
The a(2) = 1 through a(8) = 10 factorizations:
2 2*3 2*3*4 2*3*4*5 2*3*4*5*6 2*3*4*5*6*7 2*3*4*5*6*7*8
2*2*2*3 2*2*2*3*5 2*2*2*3*5*6 2*2*2*3*5*6*7 2*2*2*3*5*6*7*8
2*2*3*3*4*5 2*2*3*3*4*5*7 2*2*3*3*4*5*7*8
2*2*2*2*3*3*5 2*2*2*2*3*3*5*7 2*2*3*4*4*5*6*7
2*2*2*2*3*3*5*7*8
2*2*2*2*3*4*5*6*7
2*2*2*3*3*4*4*5*7
2*2*2*2*2*2*3*5*6*7
2*2*2*2*2*3*3*4*5*7
2*2*2*2*2*2*2*3*3*5*7
For example, 2*2*2*2*2*2*3*5*6*7 = (2)*(3)*(2*2)*(5)*(6)*(7)*(2*2*2), so (2*2*2*2*2*2*3*5*6*7) is counted under a(8).
