COMMENTS
This triangle T[n,k] is given by the denominators of rational coefficients R[n,k] appearing in a certain series expansion of 1/S(x) around x=0,
where S(x) = -x*log(x) - (1-x)*log(1-x) is the Bernoulli trial entropy.
The series is
1/S(x) = 1/(x*(1-log(x))) + sum_{n=1..inf} x^(n-1) * sum_{k=1..n} R[n,k]/(1-log(x))^(k+1)
= 1/(x*(1-log(x))) * (1 + sum_{n=1..inf} x^n * sum_{k=1..n} R[n,k]/(1-log(x))^k).
The first rationals R[n,k] are
1/2
1/6 1/4
1/12 1/6 1/8
1/20 1/9 1/8 1/16
1/30 7/90 5/48 1/12 1/32
1/42 41/720 181/2160 1/12 5/96 1/64
1/56 109/2520 97/1440 41/540 35/576 1/32 1/128
The LCM of the rows of T[n,k], i.e., A003418(A145177(n,1), ..., A145177(n,n)), is just A091137(n).
See A145176 for the numerators of R[n,k] and A145178 for the numerators scaled to denominators A091137.
