A077592 Table by antidiagonals of tau_k(n), the k-th Piltz function (see A007425), or n-th term of the sequence resulting from applying the inverse Möbius transform (k-1) times to the all-ones sequence.

As an array with offset n=0, k=1, also the number of length n chains of divisors of k. - Gus Wiseman, Aug 04 2022

Examples

			T(6,3) = 9 because we have: 1*1*6, 1*2*3, 1*3*2, 1*6*1, 2*1*3, 2*3*1, 3*1*2, 3*2*1, 6*1*1. - _Geoffrey Critzer_, Feb 16 2015
From _Gus Wiseman_, May 03 2021: (Start)
Array begins:

The triangular form T(n,k) = A(n-k,k) gives the number of length n - k chains of divisors of k. It begins:

Formula

If n = Product_i p_i^e_i, then T(n,k) = Product_i C(k+e_i-1, e_i). T(n,k) = Sum_d{d|n} T(n-1,d) = A077593(n,k) - A077593(n-1,k).
Columns are multiplicative.
Dirichlet g.f. for column k: Zeta(s)^k. - Geoffrey Critzer, Feb 16 2015
A(n,k) = A334997(k,n). - Gus Wiseman, Aug 04 2022
