A126442 Triangular array t read by rows: t(0,k) is p(k), the number of partitions of the k-multiset {0,0,...,0} with k zeros. For 0 <= n < k, t(n, k) is the number of partitions of the k-multiset {0, 0, ..., 0, 1, 2, 3, ..., k-n} with n zeros. 7

COMMENTS

First in a series of triangular arrays which comprise subsequences of A096443(n).

The second array begins 9 16 26 29 52 92 47 98 198 371 and when the arrays are aligned as illustrated in triangle A126441 with p(n) values they sum to A035310 which counts unordered multisets.

Let t(n, k) be the number of ways to partition the k-multiset {0,0,...,0,1,2,3,4,...,k-n} with n zeros, 0 <= n < k. Then t(n, k) = sum_i = 0..k j = 0..n S(n, j) C(i,  j) p(k - n - i), where S(n, j) are Stirling numbers of the second kind, C(i, j) are the number of compositions of i distinct objects into j parts, and p is the integer partition function.

To see this, partition [n] into j blocks; there are S(n, j) partitions. For such a partition x and for each i, there are C(i, j) ways to distribute i zeros into x, because the blocks of x are all distinct. There are p(k-n-i) ways to partition the remaining k-n-i zeros. Multiplying and summing gives the result. - George Beck, Jan 10 2011

EXAMPLE

This first array includes only the hook cases. A096443(9,14,16) correspond to partitions [2,2], [3,2] and [2,2,1] so these values do not appear in A126442.

The array begins:

1

2 2

3 4 5

5 7 11 15

7 12 21 36 52
