%N Triangle read by rows: a(n,k) = number of permutations of [n] allowing i->i+j (mod n), j=0..k-1.

%C The point is, we are counting permutations of [n] = {1,2,...,n} with the restriction that i cannot move by more than k places. Hence the phrase "permutations with restricted displacements". - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Mar 07 2014

%C The triangle could have been defined as an infinite square array by setting a(n,k) = n! for k >= n.

%F a(n,k) = per(sum(P^j, j=0..k-1)), where P is n X n, P[ i, i+1 (mod n) ]=1, 0's otherwise.

%F a(n,n) - a(n,n-1) = A002467(n). - _Alois P. Heinz_, Mar 06 2019

%e a(4,3) = 9 because 9 permutations of {1,2,3,4} are allowed if each i can be placed on 3 positions i+0, i+1, i+2 (mod 4): 1234, 1423, 1432, 3124, 3214, 3412, 4123, 4132, 4213.
