FORMULA
a(n) ~ Zeta(3)^(19/36) * exp(3*Zeta(3)^(1/3) * n^(2/3) + Pi^2 * n^(1/3) / (6*Zeta(3)^(1/3)) + Zeta'(-1) - Pi^4/(432*Zeta(3))) / (sqrt(3) * (2*Pi)^(3/2) * n^(55/36)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jan 30 2016
Formula (25) in the article by Auluck is incorrect. The correct formula is: p(n,n) ~ c^(19/12) * exp(3*c*n^(2/3) + 3*d*n^(1/3) + Zeta'(-1) - 3*d^2/(4*c)) / (sqrt(3) * (2*Pi)^(3/2) * n^(55/36)), where c = Zeta(3)^(1/3), d = Zeta(2)/(3*c). Also formula (24) is incorrect. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jan 30 2016
From Vaclav Kotesovec, Feb 04 2016: (Start)
The correct formula (24) is p(m,n) ~ c^(7/4)/(2*Pi*sqrt(3)) * exp(3*c*(m*n)^(1/3) + 3*d*(m+n)/(2*(m*n)^(1/3)) - 19*log(m*n)/24 - ((m/n - 2*n/m)*log(m) + (n/m - 2*m/n)*log(n))/36 - (m/n + n/m)*(log(c)/12 + Zeta'(-1) - 1/12 + 3*d^2/(4*c)) + 3*d^2/(4*c) - 3*log(2*Pi)/4 + fi((n/m)^(1/2))),
where m and n are of the same order, c = Zeta(3)^(1/3), d = Zeta(2)/(3*c) and fi(alfa) = Integral_{t=0..infinity} (1/t)*(1/(exp(alfa*t)-1)/(exp(t/alfa)-1) - (alfa/t)/(exp(alfa*t)-1) - ((1/alfa)/t)/(exp(t/alfa)-1) + 1/t^2 + (1/4)/(exp(alfa*t)-1) + (1/4)/(exp(t/alfa)-1) - (alfa/4)/t - ((1/4)/alfa)/t).
If m = n then alfa = 1 and fi(1) = 3*Zeta'(-1) + log(2*Pi)/4 - 1/6.
For the asymptotic formula for fixed m see A054225.
