COMMENTS

Number of entries in row n is 1+floor(C(n,2)/2)-floor(C(n-2,2)/2).

Sum of entries in row n is A001710(n) for n>=2.

FORMULA

In the Shareshian and Wachs reference (p. 35) a q-analog of the exponential g.f. of the Eulerian polynomials is given for the joint distribution of (inv, des) (see also the Stanley reference). The Maple program given below makes use of this function by considering its even part.

EXAMPLE

T(4,2)=5 because we have 4132, 2143, 4213, 2431 and 3241.
