Comments

T(n,k) is also the number of non-crossing configurations with exactly k polyomino matchings in a generalized game of memory played on the path of length 5n, see [Young].

For the case of partitions of {1..4n} into sets of 4, see A334062.

For the case of partitions of {1..3n} into sets of 3, see A091320.

For the case of partitions of {1..2n} into sets of 2, see A001263.

Examples

			Triangle starts:
     1;
     4,    1;
    16,   18,     1;
    64,  168,    52,    1;
   256, 1216,   936,  121,   1;
  1024, 7680, 11040, 3760, 246,  1;
  ...
For n = 2 and k = 1 the configurations are (1,7,8,9,10), (2,3,4,5,6), (1,2,8,9,10),(3,4,5,6,7), (1,2,3,9,10), (4,5,6,7,8) and (1,2,3,4,10), (5,6,7,8,9); hence T(2,1) = 4.

Formula

G.f.: G(t, z) satisfies z*G^5 - (1 + z - t*z)*G + 1 = 0.
