Another name: Triangle of signless Stirling numbers of the first kind.
Triangle T(n,k), 0<=k<=n, read by rows given by [0,1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,...] DELTA [1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,...] where DELTA is the operator defined in A084938.
A094645*A007318 as infinite lower triangular matrices.
Row sums are the factorial numbers. - Roger L. Bagula, Apr 18 2008
Exponential Riordan array [1/(1-x), log(1/(1-x))]. - Ralf Stephan, Feb 07 2014
Also the Bell transform of the factorial numbers (A000142). For the definition of the Bell transform see A264428 and for cross-references A265606. - Peter Luschny, Dec 31 2015
This is the lower triagonal Sheffer matrix of the associated or Jabotinsky type |S1| = (1, -log(1-x)) (see the W. Lang link under A006232 for the notation and references). This implies the e.g.f.s given below. |S1| is the transition matrix from the monomial basis {x^n} to the rising factorial basis {risefac(x,n)}, n >= 0. - Wolfdieter Lang, Feb 21 2017
T(n, k), for n >= k >= 1, is also the total volume of the n-k dimensional cell (polytope) built from the n-k orthogonal vectors of pairwise different lengths chosen from the set {1, 2, ..., n-1}. See the elementary symmetric function formula for T(n, k) and an example below. - Wolfdieter Lang, May 28 2017
From Wolfdieter Lang, Jul 20 2017: (Start)
The compositional inverse w.r.t. x of y = y(t;x) = x*(1 - t(-log(1-x)/x)) = x + t*log(1-x) is x = x(t;y) = ED(y,t) := Sum_{d>=0} D(d,t)*y^(d+1)/(d+1)!, the e.g.f. of the o.g.f.s D(d,t) = Sum_{m>=0} T(d+m, m)*t^m of the diagonal sequences of the present triangle. See the P. Bala link for a proof (there d = n-1, n >= 1, is the label for the diagonals).
This inversion gives D(d,t) =  P(d, t)/(1-t)^(2*d+1), with the numerator polynomials P(d, t) =  Sum_{m=0..d} A288874(d, m)*t^m. See an example below. See also the P. Bala formula in A112007. (End)
For n > 0, T(n,k) is the number of permutations of the integers from 1 to n which have k visible digits when viewed from a specific end, in the sense that a higher value hides a lower one in a subsequent position. - Ian Duff, Jul 12 2019

Three term recurrence: 50 = T(5, 2) = 1*6 + (5-1)*11 = 50.
Recurrence from the Sheffer a-sequence [1, 1/2, 1/6, 0, ...]: 50 = T(5, 2) = (5/2)*(binomial(1, 1)*1*6 + binomial(2, 1)*(1/2)*11 + binomial(3, 1)*(1/6)*6 + 0) = 50. The vanishing z-sequence produces the k=0 column from T(0, 0) = 1. (End)
Elementary symmetric function T(4, 2) = sigma^{(3)}_2 = 1*2 + 1*3 + 2*3 = 11. Here the cells (polytopes) are 3 rectangles with total area 11. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, May 28 2017
O.g.f.s of diagonals: d=2 (third diagonal) [0, 6, 50, ...] has D(2,t) = P(2, t)/(1-t)^5, with P(2, t) = 2 + t, the n = 2 row of A288874. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Jul 20 2017
Boas-Buck recurrence for column k = 2 and n = 5: T(5, 2) = (5!*2/3)*((3/8)*T(2,2)/2! + (5/12)*T(3,2)/3! + (1/2)*T(4,2)/4!) = (5!*2/3)*(3/16 + (5/12)*3/3! + (1/2)*11/4!) = 50. The beta sequence begins: {1/2, 5/12, 3/8, ...}. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Aug 11 2017

a(n,m) := S2(7; n,m) is the seventh triangle of numbers in the sequence S2(k;n,m), k=1..6: A008277 (unsigned Stirling 2nd kind), A008297 (unsigned Lah), A035342, A035469, A049029, A049385, respectively. a(n,1)=A008542(n), n>=1.
a(n,m) enumerates unordered n-vertex m-forests composed of m plane increasing 7-ary trees. Proof based on the a(n,m) recurrence. See also the F. Bergeron et al. reference, especially Table 1, first row and Example 1 for the e.g.f. for m=1. - Wolfdieter Lang, Sep 14 2007
