The formulas given below are correct. The sequence can be used to normalize the length of the longest common subsequence of a set of k full preference orderings relative to the maximum attainable length. This normalized number is a measure of concordance in the set of preference orderings.

The run lengths are given by A130477. - Andrey Zabolotskiy, Nov 02 2016

			The permutations {abc, acb} have 2 longest common subsequences of length 2: ab and ac. The permutations {abc, acb, cab} have one longest common subsequence: ab of length 2. The formula above yields T(3,3)= 2.
The triangle begins:

A277517: the maximum number of common subsequences of k distinct permutations of n items.

A152072: the maximum number of length-k longest common subsequences of a pair of length-n strings.

Flatten[Table[(n - Select[Range@ n, Function[j, Binomial[n, n - j + 1] (j - 1)! + 1 <= k <= Binomial[n, n - j] j!]]) /. {} -> {n}, {n, 5}, {k, n!}], {3}] // Flatten (* Michael De Vlieger, Nov 04 2016 *)

T(n,1)=n.

For n>1, 1<=k<=n! and 1<=j<=n, T(n,k)=n-j if binomial(n,n-j+1)*(j-1)!+1<=k<=binomial(n,n-j)*j!.
