T(n,k) is the number of derangements of [n] having k excedances. Example: T(4,2)=7 because we have 3*14*2, 3*4*12, 4*3*12, 2*14*3, 2*4*13, 3*4*21, 4*3*21, each with two excedances (marked). An excedance of a permutation p is a position i such that p(i) > i.

Sum_{k>=1} k*T(n,k) = A000274(n+1).

The triangle 1;1,1;1,7,1;... has general term T(n,k) = Sum_{j=0..n+2} (-1)^(n-j)*C(n+2,j)*A123125(j,k+2) and bivariate g.f. ((1-y)*(y*exp(2*x*y) + exp(x*(y+1))(y^2 - 4*y + 1) + y*exp(2*x)))/(exp(x*y) - y*exp(x))^3. - Paul Barry, May 10 2011

The n-th row is the local h-vector of the barycentric subdivision of a simplex, i.e., the Coxeter complex of type A. See Proposition 2.4 of Stanley's paper below. - Kyle Petersen, Aug 20 2012

T(n,k) is the k-th coefficient of the local h^*-polynomial, or box polynomial, of the s-lecture hall n-simplex with s=(2,3,...,n+1). See Theorem 4.1 of the paper by N. Gustafsson and L. Solus below. - Liam Solus, Aug 23 2018

From Peter Luschny, Sep 17 2021: (Start)
The triangle shows the coefficients of the following bivariate polynomials:
[1] 0;
[2] x*y;
[3] x^2*y +     x*y^2;
[4] x^3*y +   7*x^2*y^2 +     x*y^3;
[5] x^4*y +  21*x^3*y^2 +  21*x^2*y^3 +     x*y^4;
[6] x^5*y +  51*x^4*y^2 + 161*x^3*y^3 +  51*x^2*y^4 +     x*y^5;
[7] x^6*y + 113*x^5*y^2 + 813*x^4*y^3 + 813*x^3*y^4 + 113*x^2*y^5 + x*y^6;
...
These polynomials are the permanents of the n X n matrices with all entries above the main antidiagonal set to 'x' and all entries below the main antidiagonal set to 'y'. The main antidiagonals consist only of zeros. Substituting x <- 1 and y <- -1 generates the Euler secant numbers A122045. (Compare with A081658.)
