COMMENTS
Beginning with the Kunz cone of dimension n=0, we list the number of faces in each dimension of that cone. Each cone has a single 0-dimensional vertex and a single n-dimensional face which is the entire cone, so each vector is bookended by 1s. The number of (n-1)-dimensional facets in the n-dimensional cone is A007590(n), and the number of ridges is given by a formula listed in O'Sullivan's thesis, see references. These values are computed; no formula exists for dimensions between and including 1 and n-3.

EXAMPLE
We define the 0-dimensional cone to be a single point; thus there is 1 0-dimensional face (the vertex/the cone itself).
In the 1-dimensional cone there is 1 0-dimensional face (the vertex) and 1 1-dimensional face (the ray).
In the 2-dimensional cone there is 1 0-dimensional vertex, 2 1-dimensional rays, and 1 2-dimensional face.
In the 3-dimensional cone, there is 1 0-dimensional vertex, 4 1-dimensional rays, 4 2-dimensional facets, and 1 3-dimensional face.
