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.

A186754 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of permutations of {1,2,...,n} having k increasing cycles (0<=k<=n). A cycle (b(1), b(2), ...) is said to be increasing if, when written with its smallest element in the first position, it satisfies b(1) < b(2) < b(3) < ... .

			T(3,0) = 1 because we have (132).
T(4,2) = 7 because we have (1)(234), (13)(24), (12)(34), (123)(4), (124)(3), (134)(2), and (14)(23).

Formula

E.g.f.: G(t,z) = exp((t-1)*(exp(z)-1))/(1-z).
The 4-variate e.g.f. H(u,v,w,z) of the permutations of {1,2,...,n} with respect to size (marked by z), number of fixed points (marked by u), number of increasing cycles of length >=2 (marked by v), and number of nonincreasing cycles (marked by w) is given by H(u,v,w,z) = exp(u*z+v*(exp(z)-1-z)+w*(1-exp(z)))/(1-z)^w. Remark: the nonincreasing cycles are necessarily of length >=3. We have: G(t,z) = H(t,t,1,z).
Sum_{k=0..n} T(n,k) = n!.
T(n,0) = A186755(n).
Sum_{k=0..n} k*T(n,k) = A002627(n).
