Formula

E.g.f.: e^x*(e^(x*y)-1)/(e^x-1).

T(m, n) = Zeta(-n, 1) - Zeta(-n, m + 1), for m >= 0 and n >= 0, where Zeta(z, v) is the Hurwitz zeta function. - Peter Luschny, Nov 16 2008

T(m, n) = HarmonicNumber(m, -n). - Jean-François Alcover, May 11 2012

T(m, n) = (Bernoulli(m + 1, n + 1) - Bernoulli(m + 1, 1)) / (m + 1). - Peter Luschny, Mar 20 2024

T(m, n) = Sum_{k=0...m-n} B(k)*(-1)^k*binomial(m-n,k)*n^(m-n-k+1)/(m-n-k+1), where B(k) = Bernoulli number A027641(k) / A027642(k). - Robert B Fowler, Aug 20 2024

T(m, n) = Sum_{i=1..n} J_m(i)*floor(n/i), where J_m is the m-th Jordan totient function. - Ridouane Oudra, Jul 19 2025
