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.

A374419 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) = number of permutations in symmetric group S_n with an even number of non-fixed point cycles, without k<=n particular fixed points.

Examples

			Triangle array T(n,k) begins:
  n: {k<=n}
  0:  {1}
  1:  {1,       0}
  2:  {1,       0,       0}
  3:  {1,       0,       0,       0}
  4:  {4,       3,       3,       3,       3}
  5:  {36,      32,      29,      26,      23,      20}
  6:  {296,     260,     228,     199,     173,     150,     130}
  7:  {2360,    2064,    1804,    1576,    1377,    1204,    1054,   924}
T(n,0) = A373339(n) = the number of permutations in S_n without k=0 particular fixed points (i.e., not filtered, so all permutations) with an even number of cycles.
T(n,n) = A216778(n) = the number of permutations in S_n without k=n particular fixed points (i.e., filtered down to just the derangements) with an even number of cycles.
T(4,1<=k<=4) = 3 because S_4 contains 3 permutations with an even number of non-fixed point cycles without k=1,2,3 or 4 particular fixed points, namely the 3 (2,2)-cycles: (12)(34), (13)(24), (14)(23).
T(4,0) = 4 is one more than the above because it includes the permutation without k=0 particular fixed points, i.e., the identity permutation of 4 fixed points.

    Table[Table[1/2*(Sum[(-1)^j*Binomial[k, j]*(n - j)!, {j, 0, k}] + 2^(n - k - 1)*(2 - n - k)), {k, 0, n}], {n, 0, 10}]

Formula

T(n,k) = T(n,k-1) - T(n-1,k-1) with T(n,0) = A373339(n).
T(n,k) = (1/2) * (Sum_{j=0..k} (-1)^j * binomial(k,j) * (n-j)! + 2^(n-k-1)*(2-n-k)).
