FORMULA

E.g.f.: exp(x*y*exp(y)). - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Nov 18 2003

Up to signs, this is the triangle of connection constants expressing the monomials x^n as a linear combination of the Abel polynomials A(k,x) := x*(x+k)^(k-1), 0 <= k <= n. O.g.f. for the k-th column: A(-k,1/x) = x^k/(1-k*x)^(k+1). Cf. A061356. Examples are given below. - Peter Bala, Oct 09 2011

The o.g.f.'s for the diagonals of this triangle are the rational functions occurring in the expansion of the compositional inverse (with respect to x) (x-t*x*exp(x))^-1 = x/(1-t) + 2*t/(1-t)^3*x^2/2! + (3*t+9*t^2)/(1-t)^5*x^3/3! + (4*t+52*t^2+64*t^3)/(1-t)^7*x^4/4! + .... For example, the o.g.f. for second subdiagonal is (3*t+9*t^2)/(1-t)^5 = 3*t + 24*t^2 + 90*t^3 + 240*t^4 + .... See the Bala link. The coefficients of the numerator polynomials are listed in A202017. - Peter Bala, Dec 08 2011

EXAMPLE

Triangle begins 1; 0, 1; 0, 2, 1; 0, 3, 6, 1; 0, 4, 24, 12, 1; ...

Row 4. Expansion of x^4 in terms of Abel polynomials:

x^4 = -4*x+24*x*(x+2)-12*x*(x+3)^2+x*(x+4)^3.

O.g.f. for column 2: A(-2,1/x) = x^2/(1-2*x)^3 = x^2+6*x^3+24*x^4+80*x^5+....
