T(n, k) = ^2P_n^k in the notation of the given reference with T(0, 0) := 1. The monic row polynomials s(n,x) := Sum_{m=0..n} T(n, k)*x^k which are s(n, x) = Product_{j=0..n-1} (x-(2+j)), n >= 1 and s(0, x)=1 satisfy s(n, x+y) = Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(n, k)*s(k,x)*S1(n-k, y), with the Stirling1 polynomials S1(n, x) = Sum_{m=1..n} (A008275(n, m)*x^m) and S1(0, x)=1.
In the umbral calculus (see the S. Roman reference given in A048854) the s(n, x) polynomials are called Sheffer polynomials for (exp(2*t), exp(t)-1). This translates to the usual exponential Riordan (Sheffer) notation (1/(1+x)^2, log(1+x)).
See A143491 for the unsigned version of this array and A143494 for the inverse. - Peter Bala, Aug 25 2008

Unsigned, reversed rows (cf. A145324, A136124) are the dimensions of the cohomology of a complex manifold with a symmetric group (S_n) action. See p. 17 of the Hyde and Lagarias link. See also the Murri link for an interpretation as the Betti numbers of the moduli space M(0,n) of smooth Riemann surfaces. - Tom Copeland, Dec 09 2016
The row polynomials s(n, x) = (-1)^n*risingfactorial(2 - x, n) are related to the column sequences of the unsigned Abel triangle A137452(n, k), for k >= 2. See the formula there. - Wolfdieter Lang, Nov 21 2022

Essentially the same as A136124 but with column numbers differing by one. See A049444 for a signed version of this array. The unsigned 2-Stirling numbers of the first kind count the permutations of the set {1,2,...,n} into k disjoint cycles, with the restriction that the elements 1 and 2 belong to distinct cycles. This is the particular case r = 2 of the unsigned r-Stirling numbers of the first kind, which count the permutations of the set {1,2,...,n} into k disjoint cycles, with the restriction that the numbers 1, 2, ..., r belong to distinct cycles. The case r = 1 gives the usual unsigned Stirling numbers of the first kind, abs(A008275); for other cases see A143492 (r = 3) and A143493 (r = 4). The corresponding 2-Stirling numbers of the second kind can be found in A143494.
In general, the lower unitriangular array of unsigned r-Stirling numbers of the first kind (with suitable offsets in the row and column indexing) equals the matrix product St1 * P^(r-1), where St1 is the array of unsigned Stirling numbers of the first kind, abs(A008275) and P is Pascal's triangle, A007318. The theory of r-Stirling numbers of both kinds is developed in [Broder]. For details of the related r-Lah numbers see A143497.
This sequence also represents the number of permutations in the alternating group An of length k, where the length is taken with respect to the generators set {(12)(ij)}. For a bijective proof of the relation between these numbers and the 2-Stirling numbers of the first kind see the Rotbart link. - Aviv Rotbart, May 05 2011
With offset n=0,k=0 : triangle T(n,k), read by rows, given by [2,1,3,2,4,3,5,4,6,5,...] DELTA [1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,...] where DELTA is the operator defined in A084938. - Philippe Deléham, Sep 29 2011
With offset n=0 and k=0, this is the Sheffer triangle (1/(1-x)^2,-log(1-x)) (in the umbral notation of S. Roman's book this would be called Sheffer for (exp(-2*t),1-exp(-t))). See the e.g.f. given below. Compare also with the e.g.f. for the signed version A049444. - Wolfdieter Lang, Oct 10 2011
Reversed rows correspond to the Betti numbers of the moduli space M(0,n) of smooth Riemann surfaces (see Murri link). - Tom Copeland, Sep 19 2012

A(n,k) = number of permutations in An of length k, with respect to the generators set {(12)(ij)}. For example, A(2,0)=1 (only the identity is there), for A4, the generators are {(12)(13),(12)(14),(12,23),(12)(24),(12)(34)}, thus we have A(4,1)=5 (exactly 5 generators), the permutations of length 2 are:
   (12)(13)(12)(13) = (312)
   (12)(13)(12)(14) = (41)(23)
   (12)(13)(12)(24) = (432)(1)
   (12)(13)(12)(34) = (342)(1)
   (12)(23)(12)(24) = (13)(24)
   (12)(14)(12)(14) = (412)(3)
Namely, A(4,2)=6. Together with the identity [=(12)(12), of length 0. therefore A(4,0)=1] we have 12 permutations, comprising all A4 (4!/2=12). (End)

T(n,k) = (n-2)! * Sum_{j = k-2 .. n-2} (n-j-1)*|stirling1(j,k-2)|/j!.
Recurrence relation: T(n,k) = T(n-1,k-1) + (n-1)*T(n-1,k) for n > 2, with boundary conditions: T(n,1) = T(1,n) = 0, for all n; T(2,2) = 1; T(2,k) = 0 for k > 2.
Special cases: T(n,2) = (n-1)!; T(n,3) = (n-1)!*(1/2 + 1/3 + ... + 1/(n-1)).
T(n,k) = Sum_{2 <= i_1 < ... < i_(n-k) < n} (i_1*i_2*...*i_(n-k)). For example, T(6,4) = Sum_{2 <= i < j < 6} (i*j) = 2*3 + 2*4 + 2*5 + 3*4 + 3*5 + 4*5 = 71.
Row g.f.: Sum_{k = 2..n} T(n,k)*x^k = x^2*(x+2)*(x+3)*...*(x+n-1).
E.g.f. for column (k+2): Sum_{n>=k} T(n+2,k+2)*x^n/n! = (1/k!)*(1/(1-x)^2)*(log(1/(1-x)))^k.
E.g.f.: (1/(1-t))^(x+2) = Sum_{n>=0} Sum_{k = 0..n} T(n+2,k+2)*x^k*t^n/n! = 1 + (2+x)*t/1! + (6+5*x+x^2)*t^2/2! + ... .
This array is the matrix product St1 * P, where St1 denotes the lower triangular array of unsigned Stirling numbers of the first kind, abs(A008275) and P denotes Pascal's triangle, A007318. The row sums are n!/2 ( A001710 ). The alternating row sums are (n-2)!.
If we define f(n,i,a) = Sum_{k=0..n-i} binomial(n,k)*Stirling1(n-k,i)*Product_{j=0..k-1} (-a - j), then T(n-1,i) = |f(n,i,2)|, for n=1,2,...; i=0..n. - Milan Janjic, Dec 21 2008

n-th row of the triangle = top row of M^(n-2), M = a reversed variant of the (1,2) Pascal triangle (Cf. A029635); as follows:

The reversed, row polynomials of this entry multiplied by (1+x) are the row polynomials of A094638. E.g., (1+x)(1+5x+6x^2) = (1+6x+11x^2+6x^3). - Tom Copeland, Dec 11 2016
