COMMENTS

The row sums form A098569: {1,2,5,14,43,143,510,1936,7775,32869,...}. How do the terms of row k tend to be distributed as k grows?

Remarkably, column k of the matrix inverse (A121434) equals signed column k of the triangular matrix power: A107876^(k*(k+1)/2) for k>=0. - Paul D. Hanna, Aug 25 2006

Surprisingly, the row sums (A098569) equal the row sums of triangle A131338. - Paul D. Hanna, Aug 30 2007

Number of sequences S = s(1)s(2)...s(n) such that S contains m 0s, for 1<=j<=n, s(j)<j and s(j-s(j)) = 0, for 1<j<=n, if s(j) positive, then s(j-1) < s(j). [Frank Ruskey, Apr 15 2011]

As a rectangular array read by antidiagonals R(n,k) (n>=2, k>=0) is the number of labeled graphs on n nodes that have exactly k arcs where multiple arcs are allowed to connect distinct vertex pairs. R(n,k) = C(C(n,2)+k-1,k). See example below.  (*Geoffrey Critzer, Nov 12 2011*)

In reference to comment about s(1)s(2)...s(n) above,

   a(4,2) = 6 = |{0012, 0013, 0023, 0101, 0103, 0120}|  and

   a(4,3) = 6 = |{0001, 0002, 0003, 0010, 0020, 0100}|. [Frank Ruskey, Apr 15 2011]
