Comments

The column for k=0 is A000110 (Bell or exponential numbers). The column for k=1 is A000110 starting at offset 1. The column for k=2 is A005493 (Sum_{k=0..n} k*Stirling2(n,k).). The column for k=3 is A005494 (E.g.f.: exp(3*z+exp(z)-1).). The column for k=4 is A045379 (E.g.f.: exp(4*z+exp(z)-1).). The row for n=0 is 1's sequence, the row for n=1 is the natural numbers. The row for n=2 is A002522 (n^2 + 1.). The row for n=3 is A005491 (n^3 + 3n + 1.). The row for n=4 is A005492.

Formula

For n> 1, A(n, k) = k^n + sum_{i=0..n-2} A086659(n, i)*k^i. (A086659 is set partitions of n containing k-1 blocks of length 1, with e.g.f: exp(x*y)*(exp(exp(x)-1-x)-1).)
