FORMULA

T(n, k) = Sum_{j=k+1..n} T(n,j)*T(j,k+1) for n>k+1>=1 with T(n+1,n)=n+1 and T(n,n)=1 for n>=0.

EXAMPLE

Triangle T begins:

1;

1, 1;

4, 2, 1;

18, 6, 3, 1;

96, 28, 8, 4, 1;

580, 150, 40, 10, 5, 1;

3852, 930, 216, 54, 12, 6, 1;

27678, 6286, 1386, 294, 70, 14, 7, 1;

212224, 46120, 9552, 1960, 384, 88, 16, 8, 1;

1722312, 359946, 71820, 13770, 2664, 486, 108, 18, 9, 1;

14685140, 2973650, 571440, 106290, 19060, 3510, 600, 130, 20, 10, 1; ...

Illustrate recurrence by products of row and column vectors:

T(4,1) = [8,4,1]*[1,3,8]~ = 8*1 + 4*3 + 1*8 = 28;

T(6,0) = [930,216,54,12,6,1]*[1,2,6,28,150,930]~ = 3852;

T(7,1) = [6286,1386,294,70,14,7,1]*[1,2,6,28,150,930,6286]~ = 27678.

Matrix square T^2 begins:

1;

2, 1;

10, 4, 1;

54, 18, 6, 1;

324, 96, 28, 8, 1;

2130, 580, 150, 40, 10, 1;

15102, 3852, 930, 216, 54, 12, 1;

114282, 27678, 6286, 1386, 294, 70, 14, 1; ...

which equals T shifted right one column with the secondary diagonal dropped.
