cp's OEIS Frontend

This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

A124418 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of partitions of the set {1,2,...,n} having exactly k blocks that contain both odd and even entries (0<=k<=floor(n/2)).

Row n has 1+floor(n/2) terms. Row sums are the Bell numbers (A000110). T(n,0)=A124419(n).

Examples

			T(4,1) = 9 because we have 1234, 134|2, 1|234, 124|3, 14|2|3, 1|2|34, 123|4, 1|23|4 and 12|3|4.

Formula

The generating polynomial of row n is P[n](x)=Q[n](1,1,x), where the polynomials Q[n]=Q[n](t,s,x) are defined by Q[0]=1; Q[n]=t*dQ[n-1]/dt + x*dQ[n-1]/ds + x*dQ[n-1]/dx + t*Q[n-1] if n is odd and Q[n]=x*dQ[n-1]/dt + s*dQ[n-1]/ds + x*dQ[n-1]/dx + s*Q[n-1] if n is even.
Conjecture: T(n,k) = k!*A049020([n/2],k)*A049020([(n+1)/2],k) where A049020(n,k)=Sum_{i=0..n} S2(n,i)*C(i,k) and S2(n,k)=(1/k!)*Sum_{j=0..k} (-1)^(k-j)*C(k,j)*j^n (the Stirling numbers of 2nd kind). - Paul D. Hanna, Nov 08 2006
Sum_{k=0..floor(n/2)} = k * A362495(n). - Alois P. Heinz, Jun 05 2023
