FORMULA

G.f. 1/(1 - sum(k>0, (-1)^(k+1)*x^k*y^k/(1-x^k)).

EXAMPLE

T(6,3) = 7 because the compositions of 6 into 3 parts with no adjacent equal parts are 3+2+1, 3+1+2, 2+3+1, 2+1+3, 1+3+2, 1+2+3, 1+4+1.

MAPLE

b:= proc(n, h, t) option remember;

      if n<t then 0

    elif n=0 then  `if`(t=0, 1, 0)

    else add (`if`(h=j, 0, b(n-j, j, t-1)), j=1..n)

      fi

    end:

T:= (n, k)-> b(n, -1, k):
