%N Triangle of Eulerian numbers T(n,k) (n >= 1, 1 <= k <= n) read by rows.

%C The indexing used here follows that given in the classic books by Riordan and Comtet. For two other versions see A173018 and A123125. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Nov 21 2010

%C Coefficients of Eulerian polynomials. Number of permutations of n objects with k-1 rises. Number of increasing rooted trees with n+1 nodes and k leaves.

%C T(n,k) = number of permutations of [n] with k runs. T(n,k) = number of permutations of [n] requiring k readings (see the Knuth reference). T(n,k) = number of permutations of [n] having k distinct entries in its inversion table. - _Emeric Deutsch_, Jun 09 2004

%C T(n,k) = number of ways to write the Coxeter element s_{e1}s_{e1-e2}s_{e2-e3}s_{e3-e4}...s_{e_{n-1}-e_n} of the reflection group of type B_n, using s_{e_k} and as few reflections of the form s_{e_i+e_j}, where i = 1, 2, ..., n and j is not equal to i, as possible. - Pramook Khungurn (pramook(AT)mit.edu), Jul 07 2004

%C Subtriangle for k>=1 and n>=1 of triangle A123125. - _Philippe Deléham_, Oct 22 2006

%C T(n,k)/n! also represents the n-dimensional volume of the portion of the n-dimensional hypercube cut by the (n-1)-dimensional hyperplanes x_1 + x_2 + ... x_n = k, x_1 + x_2 + ... x_n = k-1; or, equivalently, it represents the probability that the sum of n independent random variables with uniform distribution between 0 and 1 is between k-1 and k. - Stefano Zunino, Oct 25 2006

%C [E(.,t)/(1-t)]^n = n!*Lag[n,-P(.,t)/(1-t)] and [-P(.,t)/(1-t)]^n = n!*Lag[n, E(.,t)/(1-t)] umbrally comprise a combinatorial Laguerre transform pair, where E(n,t) are the Eulerian polynomials and P(n,t) are the polynomials in A131758. - _Tom Copeland_, Sep 30 2007

%C From _Tom Copeland_, Oct 07 2008: (Start)

%C G(x,t) = 1/(1 + (1-exp(x*t))/t) = 1 + 1*x + (2+t)*x^2/2! + (6+6*t+t^2)*x^3/3! + ... gives row polynomials for A090582, the reverse f-polynomials for the permutohedra (see A019538).

%C G(x,t-1) = 1 + 1*x + (1+t)*x^2/2! + (1+4*t+t^2)*x^3/3! + ... gives row polynomials for A008292, the h-polynomials for permutohedra (Postnikov et al.).

%C G((t+1)*x, -1/(t+1)) = 1 + (1+t)*x + (1+3*t+2*t^2)*x^2/2! + ... gives row polynomials for A028246.

%C (End)

%C A subexceedant function f on [n] is a map f:[n] -> [n] such that 1 <= f(i) <= i for all i, 1 <= i <= n. T(n,k) equals the number of subexceedant functions f of [n] such that the image of f has cardinality k [Mantaci & Rakotondrajao]. Example T(3,2) = 4: if we identify a subexceedant function f with the word f(1)f(2)...f(n) then the subexceedant functions on [3] are 111, 112, 113, 121, 122 and 123 and four of these functions have an image set of cardinality 2. - _Peter Bala_, Oct 21 2008

%C Further to the comments of _Tom Copeland_ above, the n-th row of this triangle is the h-vector of the simplicial complex dual to a permutohedron of type A_(n-1). The corresponding f-vectors are the rows of A019538. For example, 1 + 4*x + x^2 = y^2 + 6*y + 6 and 1 + 11*x + 11*x^2 + x^3 = y^3 + 14*y^2 + 36*y + 24, where x = y + 1, give [1,6,6] and [1,14,36,24] as the third and fourth rows of A019538. The Hilbert transform of this triangle (see A145905 for the definition) is A047969. See A060187 for the triangle of Eulerian numbers of type B (the h-vectors of the simplicial complexes dual to permutohedra of type B). See A066094 for the array of h-vectors of type D. For tables of restricted Eulerian numbers see A144696 - A144699. - _Peter Bala_, Oct 26 2008

%C For a natural refinement of A008292 with connections to compositional inversion and iterated derivatives, see A145271. - _Tom Copeland_, Nov 06 2008

%C The polynomials E(z,n) = numerator(Sum_{k>=1} (-1)^(n+1)*k^n*z^(k-1)) for n >=1 lead directly to the triangle of Eulerian numbers. - _Johannes W. Meijer_, May 24 2009

%C From Walther Janous (walther.janous(AT)tirol.com), Nov 01 2009: (Start)

%C The (Eulerian) polynomials e(n,x) = Sum_{k=0..n-1} T(n,k+1)*x^k turn out to be also the numerators of the closed-form expressions of the infinite sums:

%C S(p,x) = Sum_{j>=0} (j+1)^p*x^j, that is

%C S(p,x) = e(p,x)/(1-x)^(p+1), whenever |x| < 1 and p is a positive integer.

%C (Note the inconsistent use of T(n,k) in the section listing the formula section. I adhere tacitly to the first one.) (End)

%C If n is an odd prime, then all numbers of the (n-2)-th and (n-1)-th rows are in the progression k*n+1. - _Vladimir Shevelev_, Jul 01 2011

%C The Eulerian triangle is an element of the formula for the r-th successive summation of Sum_{k=1..n} k^j which appears to be Sum_{k=1..n} T(j,k-1) * binomial(j-k+n+r, j+r). - _Gary Detlefs_, Nov 11 2011

%C Li and Wong show that T(n,k) counts the combinatorially inequivalent star polygons with n+1 vertices and sum of angles (2*k-n-1)*Pi. An equivalent formulation is: define the total sign change S(p) of a permutation p in the symmetric group S_n to be equal to Sum_{i=1..n} sign(p(i)-p(i+1)), where we take p(n+1) = p(1). T(n,k) gives the number of permutations q in S_(n+1) with q(1) = 1 and S(q) = 2*k-n-1. For example, T(3,2) = 4 since in S_4 the permutations (1243), (1324), (1342) and (1423) have total sign change 0. - _Peter Bala_, Dec 27 2011

%C Xiong, Hall and Tsao refer to Riordan and mention that a traditional Eulerian number A(n,k) is the number of permutations of (1,2...n) with k weak exceedances. - _Susanne Wienand_, Aug 25 2014

%C Connections to algebraic geometry/topology and characteristic classes are discussed in the Buchstaber and Bunkova, the Copeland, the Hirzebruch, the Lenart and Zainoulline, the Losev and Manin, and the Sheppeard links; to the Grassmannian, in the Copeland, the Farber and Postnikov, the Sheppeard, and the Williams links; and to compositional inversion and differential operators, in the Copeland and the Parker links. - _Tom Copeland_, Oct 20 2015

%C The bivariate e.g.f. noted in the formulas is related to multiplying edges in certain graphs discussed in the Aluffi-Marcolli link. See p. 42. - _Tom Copeland_, Dec 18 2016

%C Distribution of left children in treeshelves is given by a shift of the Eulerian numbers. Treeshelves are ordered binary (0-1-2) increasing trees where every child is connected to its parent by a left or a right link. See A278677, A278678 or A278679 for more definitions and examples. - _Sergey Kirgizov_, Dec 24 2016

%C The row polynomial P(n, x) = Sum_{k=1..n} T(n, k)*x^k appears in the numerator of the o.g.f. G(n, x) = Sum_{m>=0} S(n, m)*x^m with S(n, m) = Sum_{j=0..m} j^n for n >= 1 as G(n, x) = Sum_{k=1..n} P(n, x)/(1 - x)^(n+2) for n >= 0 (with 0^0=1). See also triangle A131689 with a Mar 31 2017 comment for a rewritten form. For the e.g.f see A028246 with a Mar 13 2017 comment. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Mar 31 2017

%C For relations to Ehrhart polynomials, volumes of polytopes, polylogarithms, the Todd operator, and other special functions, polynomials, and sequences, see A131758 and the references therein. - _Tom Copeland_, Jun 20 2017

%C For relations to values of the Riemann zeta function at integral arguments, see A131758 and the Dupont reference. - _Tom Copeland_, Mar 19 2018

%C Normalized volumes of the hypersimplices, attributed to Laplace. (Cf. the De Loera et al. reference, p. 327.) - _Tom Copeland_, Jun 25 2018

%F Four characterizations of Eulerian numbers T(i, n):

%F 1. T(0, n)=1 for n>=1, T(i, 1)=0 for i>=1, T(i, n) = (n-i)T(i-1, n-1) + (i+1)T(i, n-1).

%F 2. T(i, n) = Sum_{j=0..i} (-1)^j*binomial(n+1,j)*(i-j+1)^n for n>=1, i>=0.

%F 3. Let C_n be the unit cube in R^n with vertices (e_1, e_2, ..., e_n) where each e_i is 0 or 1 and all 2^n combinations are used. Then T(i, n)/n! is the volume of C_n between the hyperplanes x_1 + x_2 + ... + x_n = i and x_1 + x_2 + ... + x_n = i+1. Hence T(i, n)/n! is the probability that i <= X_1 + X_2 + ... + X_n < i+1 where the X_j are independent uniform [0, 1] distributions. - See Ehrenborg & Readdy reference.

%F 4. Let f(i, n) = T(i, n)/n!. The f(i, n) are the unique coefficients so that (1/(r-1)^(n+1)) Sum_{i=0..n-1} f(i, n) r^{i+1} = Sum_{j>=0} (j^n)/(r^j) whenever n>=1 and abs(r)>1. (End)

%F Bell_n(x) = Sum_{j=0..n} S2(n,j) * x^j = Sum_{j=0..n} E(n,j) * Lag(n,-x, j-n) = Sum_{j=0..n} (E(n,j)/n!) * (n!*Lag(n,-x, j-n)) = Sum_{j=0..n} E(n,j) * binomial(Bell.(x)+j, n) umbrally where Bell_n(x) are the Bell / Touchard / exponential polynomials; S2(n,j), the Stirling numbers of the second kind; E(n,j), the Eulerian numbers; and Lag(n,x,m), the associated Laguerre polynomials of order m.

%F For x = 0, the equation gives Sum_{j=0..n} E(n,j) * binomial(j,n) = 1 for n=0 and 0 for all other n. By substituting the umbral compositional inverse of the Bell polynomials, the lower factorial n!*binomial(y,n), for x in the equation, the Worpitzky identity is obtained; y^n = Sum_{j=0..n} E(n,j) * binomial(y+j,n).

%F Note that E(n,j)/n! = E(n,j)/(Sum_{k=0..n} E(n,k)). Also (n!*Lag(n, -1, j-n)) is A086885 with a simple combinatorial interpretation in terms of seating arrangements, giving a combinatorial interpretation to the equation for x=1; n!*Bell_n(1) = n!*Sum_{j=0..n} S2(n,j) = Sum_{j=0..n} E(n,j) * (n!*Lag(n, -1, j-n)).

%F From the relations between the h- and f-polynomials of permutohedra and reciprocals of e.g.f.s described in A049019: (t-1)((t-1)d/dx)^n 1/(t-exp(x)) evaluated at x=0 gives the n-th Eulerian row polynomial in t and the n-th row polynomial in (t-1) of A019538 and A090582. From the Comtet and Copeland references in A139605: ((t+exp(x)-1)d/dx)^(n+1) x gives pairs of the Eulerian polynomials in t as the coefficients of x^0 and x^1 in its Taylor series expansion in x. - _Tom Copeland_, Oct 05 2008

%F If n is odd prime, then the following consecutive 2*n+1 terms are 1 modulo n: a((n-1)*(n-2)/2+i), i=0..2*n. This chain of terms is maximal in the sense that neither the previous term nor the following one are 1 modulo n. - _Vladimir Shevelev, Jul 01 2011

%F For k = 0,1,2,... put G(k,x,t) := x -(1+2^k*t)*x^2/2 +(1+2^k*t+3^k*t^2)*x^3/3-(1+2^k*t+3^k*t^2+4^k*t^3)*x^4/4+.... Then the series reversion of G(k,x,t) with respect to x gives an e.g.f. for the present table when k = 0 and for A008517 when k = 1.

%F The e.g.f. B(x,t) := compositional inverse with respect to x of G(0,x,t) = (exp(x)-exp(x*t))/(exp(x*t)-t*exp(x)) = x + (1+t)*x^2/2! + (1+4*t+t^2)*x^3/3! + ... satisfies the autonomous differential equation dB/dx = (1+B)*(1+t*B) = 1 + (1+t)*B + t*B^2.

%F Applying [Bergeron et al., Theorem 1] gives a combinatorial interpretation for the Eulerian polynomials: A(n,t) counts plane increasing trees on n vertices where each vertex has outdegree <= 2, the vertices of outdegree 1 come in 1+t colors and the vertices of outdegree 2 come in t colors. An example is given below. Cf. A008517. Applying [Dominici, Theorem 4.1] gives the following method for calculating the Eulerian polynomials: Let f(x,t) = (1+x)*(1+t*x) and let D be the operator f(x,t)*d/dx. Then A(n+1,t) = D^n(f(x,t)) evaluated at x = 0.

%F (End)

%F With e.g.f. A(x,t) = G[x,(t-1)]-1 in Copeland's 2008 comment, the compositional inverse is Ainv(x,t) = log(t-(t-1)/(1+x))/(t-1). - _Tom Copeland_, Oct 11 2011

%F A) Bivariate e.g.f. A(x,a,b)= (e^(ax)-e^(bx))/(a*e^(bx)-b*e^(ax)) = x + (a+b)*x^2/2! + (a^2+4ab+b^2)*x^3/3! + (a^3+11a^2b+11ab^2+b^3)x^4/4! + ...

%F B) B(x,a,b)= log((1+ax)/(1+bx))/(a-b) = x - (a+b)x^2/2 + (a^2+ab+b^2)x^3/3 - (a^3+a^2b+ab^2+b^3)x^4/4 + ... = log(1+u.*x), with (u.)^n = u_n = h_(n-1)(a,b) a complete homogeneous polynomial, is the compositional inverse of A(x,a,b) in x (see Drake, p. 56).

%F C) A(x) satisfies dA/dx = (1+a*A)(1+b*A) and can be written in terms of a Weierstrass elliptic function (see Buchstaber & Bunkova).

%F D) The bivariate Eulerian row polynomials are generated by the iterated derivative ((1+ax)(1+bx)d/dx)^n x evaluated at x=0 (see A145271).

%F E) A(x,a,b)= -(e^(-ax)-e^(-bx))/(a*e^(-ax)-b*e^(-bx)), A(x,-1,-1) = x/(1+x), and B(x,-1,-1) = x/(1-x).

%F F) FGL(x,y) = A(B(x,a,b) + B(y,a,b),a,b) = (x+y+(a+b)xy)/(1-ab*xy) is called the hyperbolic formal group law and related to a generalized cohomology theory by Lenart and Zainoulline. (End)

%F For x > 1, the n-th Eulerian polynomial A(n,x) = (x - 1)^n * log(x) * Integral_{u>=0} (ceiling(u))^n * x^(-u) du. - _Peter Bala_, Feb 06 2015

%F Sum_{j>=0} j^n/e^j, for n>=0, equals Sum_{k=1..n} T(n,k)e^k/(e-1)^(n+1), a rational function in the variable "e" which evaluates, approximately, to n! when e = A001113 = 2.71828... - _Richard R. Forberg_, Feb 15 2015

%F For a fixed k, T(n,k) ~ k^n, proved by induction. - _Ran Pan_, Oct 12 2015

%F From A145271, multiply the n-th diagonal (with n=0 the main diagonal) of the lower triangular Pascal matrix by g_n = (d/dx)^n (1+a*x)*(1+b*x) evaluated at x= 0, i.e., g_0 = 1, g_1 = (a+b), g_2 = 2ab, and g_n = 0 otherwise, to obtain the tridiagonal matrix VP with VP(n,k) = binomial(n,k) g_(n-k). Then the m-th bivariate row polynomial of this entry is P(m,a,b) = (1, 0, 0, 0, ...) [VP * S]^(m-1) (1, a+b, 2ab, 0, ...)^T, where S is the shift matrix A129185, representing differentiation in the divided powers basis x^n/n!. Also, P(m,a,b) = (1, 0, 0, 0, ...) [VP * S]^m (0, 1, 0, ...)^T. - _Tom Copeland_, Aug 02 2016
