A260338 Triangle read by rows: Cayley's numbers phi(m,n) (m,n>=0). Row m contains phi(m,0), phi(m-1,1), phi(m-2,2), ..., phi(0,m).

Programs

Maple

phi:= proc(m, n) option remember;
        `if`(n+m<2, 1, `if`(n+m=2, 2, m*phi(m-1, n)-
        `if`(n=0, (m-1)*(m-2)/2*phi(m-3, 0), -n*phi(m, n-1))))
      end:
seq(seq(phi(m-k, k), k=0..m), m=0..10);  # Alois P. Heinz, Jul 30 2015

Mathematica

phi[m_, n_] := phi[m, n] = If[n+m < 2, 1, If[n+m == 2, 2, m*phi[m-1, n] - If[n == 0, (m-1)*(m-2)/2*phi[m-3, 0], -n*phi[m, n-1]]]]; Table[Table[phi[ m-k, k], {k, 0, m}], {m, 0, 10}] // Flatten (* Jean-François Alcover, Feb 17 2016, after Alois P. Heinz *)

Formula

phi(0,0)=1, phi(1,0)=phi(0,1)=1, phi(2,0)=phi(1,1)=phi(0,2)=2; for m>2, phi(m,0) = m*phi(m-1,0) - (m-1)*(m-2)/2*phi(m-3,0); for m>2, n>0, phi(m,n) = m*phi(m-1,n) + n*phi(m,n-1).
