FORMULA
From Washington Bomfim, Jul 19 2012 and Dec 22 2020: (Start)
a(n) = Sum_{P}( g(Q) ), where P is the set of the partitions Q of n with 4 parts, Q with distinct parts D[1]..D[d], D[1] the part of maximum multiplicity m in Q, f(n) = A000081(n), and g(Q) given by,
| 3 * f(D[1]) * f(D[2]) * f(D[3]) * f(D[4]), if d = 4,
| (f(D[1])^4 + 2*f(D[1])^3 + 3*f(D[1])^2 + 2*f(D[1]))/8, if d = 1,
g(Q) = | f(D[1]) * f(D[2]) * f(D[3]) * (3 * f(D[1]) + 1)/2, if d = 3,
| ((3*f(D[2])^2+f(D[2]))*f(D[1])^2+(f(D[2])^2+3*f(D[2]))*f(D[1]))/4,
| if d=2, and m=2,
| f(D[1])^2 * f(D[2]) * (f(D[1]) + 1)/2, if d=2, and m=3.
