Formula
T(n,k) = 0 if k <= 0 or k > n, = 1 if k=1, otherwise T(n,k) = k*(2*k-1)*T(n-1,k-1) + k^2*T(n-1,k).
Related to Euler numbers A000364 by A000364(n) = (-1)^n*Sum_{k=1..n} (-1)^k*T(n,k). For example, A000364(3) = 61 = 90 - 30 + 1.

T(n,k) = 1/(2^(k-1))*Sum_{j = 1..k} (-1)^(k-j)*binomial(2*k,k-j)*j^(2*n).
E.g.f.: A(t,z) := 1/( 1 - t*(cosh(z) - 1) ) = 1 + t*z^2/2! + (t + 6*t^2)*z^4/4! + (t + 30*t^2 + 90*t^3)*z^6/6! + ... satisfies the partial differential equation d^2/dz^2(A) = D(A), where D = t^2*(2*t + 1)*d^2/dt^2 + t*(5*t + 1)*d/dt + t.
Hence the row polynomials R(n,t) satisfy the differential equation R(n+1,t) = t^2*(2*t + 1)*R''(n,t) + t*(5*t + 1)*R'(n,t) + t*R(n,t) with R(0,t) = 1, where ' indicates differentiation w.r.t. t. This is equivalent to the above recurrence equation.
Recurrence for row polynomials: R(n,t) = t*( Sum_{k = 1..n} binomial(2*n,2*k)*R(n-k,t) ) with R(0,t) := 1.
Row sums equal A094088(n) for n >= 1.
A100872(n) = (1/2)*R(n,2). (End)
