Examples
T(n,k) (the first 8 rows): : 1; : 1, 1; : 4, 3, 2; : 15, 9, 8, 6; : 76, 45, 40, 30, 24; : 455, 285, 200, 180, 144, 120; : 3186, 1995, 1400, 1260, 1008, 840, 720; : 25487, 15855, 11200, 8820, 8064, 6720, 5760, 5040; ... T(4,3)=8 since there are exactly 8 permutations on {1,2,3,4} with at least one 3-cycle: (1)(234), (1)(243), (2)(134), (2)(143), (3)(124), (3)(142), (4)(123), and (4)(132).

Formula
T(n,k) = n! * Sum_{j=1..floor(n/k)} (-1)^(j+1)*(1/k)^j/j!.
T(n,k) = n! - A122974(n,k).
E.g.f. of column k: (1-exp(-x^k/k))/(1-x). - Alois P. Heinz, Oct 11 2017
