Comments

Let g(z) = 1/2 + W(z/e^z) / (2*z), where W is Lambert's W-function; g satisfies 2 * g(z) = 1 + exp(-2 * z *(z)). Let c(m,n) be the coefficient of z^m in the Maclaurin series for g(z)^n; equivalently c(m,n) is 1/m! times the mixed partial derivative (d^(m+n) f(t,z)) / (dz^m dt^n), where f(t,z) = exp(t*g(z)). For 0<k<=m, let T(m,k) = 2^k * m! * (-1)^(m-k) * c(m-k,k). The sequence gives the values of T(m, k) read by rows.

Formula

T(n, k) = 2^k * n! * (-1)^(n-k) * c(n-k,k) where c(n, k) = (1/n) * Sum_{j=1..n} (((k+1)*j-n) * c(n-j, k) * c(j, 1)), where c(0, k)=1 and c(j, 1) = (1/2) * (-1)^j * (1/(j+1)!) * Sum_{i=1..j+1} binomial(j+1, i) * i^j.
