a(n,1) = A001715(n+2). a(n,m)=: S1p(4; n,m), a member of a sequence of lower triangular Jabotinsky matrices with nonnegative entries including S1p(1; n,m)= A008275 (unsigned Stirling first kind), S1p(2; n,m)= A008297(n,m) (unsigned Lah numbers), S1p(3; n,m)= A046089(n,m).
The signed lower triangular matrix (-1)^(n-m)*a(n,m) is inverse to matrix A035469(n,m) := S2(4; n,m). The monic row polynomials E(n,x) := sum(a(n,m)*x^m,m=1..n), E(0,x) := 1 are exponential convolution polynomials (see A039692 for the definition and a Knuth reference).
a(n,m) enumerates unordered increasing n-vertex m-forests composed of m unary trees (out-degree r from {0,1}) whose vertices of depth (distance from the root) j>=1 come in j+3 colors. The k roots (j=0) each come in one (or no) color. - Wolfdieter Lang, Oct 12 2007
Also the Bell transform of A001715. For the definition of the Bell transform see A264428. - Peter Luschny, Jan 28 2016

Examples

			Triangle starts:
{1};
{4,1};
{20,12,1};
{120,128,24,1};
{840,1400,440,40,1};
...
E.g. Row polynomial E(3,x)= 20*x + 12*x^2 + x^3.
a(4,2)=128=4*(4*5)+3*(4*4) from the two types of unordered 2-forests of unary increasing trees associated with the two m=2 parts partitions (1,3) and (2^2) of n=4. The first type has 4 increasing labelings, each coming in (1)*(1*4*5)=20 colored versions, e.g. ((1c1),(2c1,3c4,4c3)) with lcp for vertex label l and color p. Here the vertex labeled 3 has depth j=1, hence 4 colors, c1..c4, can be chosen and the vertex labeled 4 with j=2 can come in 5 colors, e.g. c1..c5. Therefore there are 4*((1)*(1*4*5))=80 forests of this (1,3) type. Similarly the (2,2) type yields 3*((1*4)*(1*4))=48 such forests, e.g. ((1c1,3c2)(2c1,4c4)) or ((1c1,3c3)(2c1,4c2)), etc. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Oct 12 2007

Formula

a(n, m) = n!*A030524(n, m)/(m!*3^(n-m)); a(n, m) = (3*m+n-1)*a(n-1, m) + a(n-1, m-1), n >= m >= 1; a(n, m)=0, n
a(n,k) = (n!*sum(j=1..k, (-1)^(k-j)*binomial(k,j)*binomial(n+3*j-1,3*j-1)))/(3^k*k!). [Vladimir Kruchinin, Apr 01 2011]
