%N Triangle read by rows: T(n, k) = (k+1)*A132393(n+1, k+1), for 0 <= k <= n.

%C Previous name was: Number triangle f(n, k) from n-th differences of the sequence {1/m^2}_{m >= 1}, for n >= 0; the n-th difference sequence is {(-1)^n*n!*P(n, m)/D(n, m)^2}_{m >= 1} where P(n, x) is the row polynomial P(n, x) = Sum_{k=0..n} f(n,k)*x^k and D(n, x) = x*(x+1)*...*(x+n).

%C From _Johannes W. Meijer_, Oct 07 2009: (Start)

%C The higher-order exponential integrals E(x,m,n) are defined in A163931 and the general formula of the asymptotic expansion of E(x,m,n) can be found in A163932.

%C We used the general formula and the asymptotic expansion of E(x,m=1,n), see A130534, to determine that E(x,m=2,n) ~ (exp(-x)/x^2)*(1 - (1+2*n)/x + (2 + 6*n + 3*n^2)/x^2 - (6 + 22*n + 18*n^2 + 4*n^3)/x^3 + ...) which can be verified with the EA(x,2,n) formula, see A163932. The coefficients in the denominators of this expansion lead to the sequence given above.

%C The asymptotic expansion of E(x,m=2,n) leads for n from one to ten to known sequences, see the cross-references. With these sequences one can form the triangles A165674 (left hand columns) and A093905 (right hand columns).

%C From _Wolfdieter Lang_, Nov 25 2018: (Start)

%C The signed triangle t(n, k) := (-1)^{n-k}*f(n, k) gives (n+1)*N(-1;n,x) = Sum_{k=0..n} t(n, k)*x^k, where N(-1;n,x) are the Narumi polynomials with parameter a = -1 (see the Weisstein link).

%C The members of the n-th difference sequence of the sequence {1/m^2}_{m>=1} mentioned above satisfies the recurrence delta(n, m) = delta(n-1, m+1) - delta(n-1, m), for n >= 1, m >= 1, with input delta(0, m) = 1/m^2. The solution is delta(n, m) = (n+1)!*N(-1;n,-m)/risefac(m, n+1)^2, with Narumi polynomials N(-1;n,x) and the rising factorials risefac(x, n+1) = D(n, x) = x*(x+1)*...*(x+n).

%C The above mentioned row polynomials P satisfy P(n, x) = (-1)^n*(n + 1)*N(-1;n,-x), for n >= 0. The recurrence is P(n, x) = (-x^2*P(n-1, x+1) + (n+x)^2*P(n-1, x))/n, for n >= 1, and P(0, x) = 1. (End)

%C The triangle is the exponential Riordan square (cf. A321620) of -log(1-x) with an additional main diagonal of zeros. - _Peter Luschny_, Jan 03 2019

%F E.g.f.: d/dt(-log(1-t)/(1-t)^x). - _Vladeta Jovovic_, Oct 12 2003

%F The e.g.f. with offset 1: y = x + (1 + 2*t)*x^2/2! + (2 + 6*t + 3*t^2)*x^3/3! + ... has series reversion with respect to x equal to y - (1 + 2*t)*y^2/2! + (1 + 3*t)^2*y^3/3! - (1 + 4*t)^3*y^4/4! + .... This is an e.g.f. for a signed version of A139526. - _Peter Bala_, Jul 18 2013

%F Recurrence: T(n, k) = 0 if n < k; if k = 0 then T(0, 0) = 1 and T(n, 0) = n * T(n-1, 0) for n >= 1, otherwise T(n, k) = n*T(n-1, k) + ((k+1)/k)*T(n-1, k-1). From the unsigned Stirling1 recurrence. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Nov 25 2018
