%N The sequence S(n,-3,1,1), where S(n,k,t,q) is defined by Sum_{j=0..n} binomial(n+q,j)^t * B(j,k) and B(j,k) is the j-th k-poly-Bernoulli number.
%C The sequence S(n,-2,1,1), n>=0, is A016269. It would be interesting to study the more general sequences S(r,-m,1,1), r=0,1,2,... for fixed m; here we consider the special cases m=3 and m=2. Finally, one can use the sum S(r,k,t,q) to discover certain recurrence relations involving poly-Bernoulli numbers. Let us note that the well known recurrence of the classical Bernoulli numbers yields S(r,1,1,1)=r+1. Let us also note that numerical experimentation suggests that S(r,-2,1,1)=S(r,-3,0,q).
%F a(n) = S(n, -3, 1, 1) = Sum_{k=0..n} ( binomial(n+1, k) * (-1)^k * Sum_{j=0..k} ((j+1)^3 * Sum_{i=0..j} (-1)^i * binomial(j, i) * i^k) ). [Corrected by _Sean A. Irvine_, Feb 21 2024]
