A103240
Unreduced numerators of the elements T(n,k)/(n-k)!, read by rows, of the triangular matrix P^-1, which is the inverse of the matrix defined by P(n,k) = (-k^2)^(n-k)/(n-k)! for n >= k >= 1.

Define a triangular matrix P where P(n,k) = (-k^2)^(n-k)/(n-k)!; then M = P*D*P^-1 = A102086 satisfies M^2 = SHIFTUP(M) where D is the diagonal matrix consisting of {1,2,3,...}. The operation SHIFTUP(M) shifts each column of M up 1 row. Essentially equal to square array A082169 as a triangular matrix. The first column is A082157 (enumerates acyclic automata with 2 inputs).
FORMULA
For n > k >= 1: 0 = Sum_{m=k..n} C(n-k, m-k)*(-m^2)^(n-m)*T(m, k).
For n > k >= 1: 0 = Sum_{j=k..n} C(n-k, j-k)*(-k^2)^(j-k)*T(n, j).
