Comments

This is a lower triangular infinite matrix of the Jabotinsky type. See the Knuth reference given in A039692 for exponential convolution arrays.
The row polynomials p(n,x) := Sum_{m=1..n} a(n,m)x^m, n >= 1, have e.g.f. J(x; z)= exp((exp(5*z) - 1)*x/5) - 1.

Examples

			[1]; [5,1]; [25,15,1]; ...; p(3,x) = x(25 + 15*x + x^2).

Formula

a(n, m) = (5^(n-m)) * stirling2(n, m).
a(n, m) = (Sum_{p=0..m-1} A075513(m, p)*((p+1)*5)^(n-m))/(m-1)! for n >= m >= 1, else 0.
a(n, m) = 5m*a(n-1, m) + a(n-1, m-1), n >= m >= 1, else 0, with a(n, 0) := 0 and a(1, 1)=1.
G.f. for m-th column: (x^m)/Product_{k=1..m}(1-5k*x), m >= 1.
E.g.f. for m-th column: (((exp(5x)-1)/5)^m)/m!, m >= 1.
