%C Number of restricted growth functions of length n with a multiplicity k of the maximum value. RGF's are here defined as f(1)=1, f(i) <= 1+max_{1<=j<i} f(j). - _R. J. Mathar_, Mar 18 2016

%F The row enumerating polynomial P[n](t)=Q[n](t,1), where Q[1](t,s)=ts and Q[n](t,s)=s*dQ[n-1](t,s)/ds +(t-1)Q[n-1](t,s)+tsQ[n-1](1,s) for n>=2.

%Y Row sums are the Bell numbers (A000110). It seems that T(n, 1), T(n, 2), T(n, 3) and T(n, 4) are given by A040027, A045501, A045499 and A045500, respectively. A121207 gives a very similar triangle.

%Y T(2n,n) gives A297924.

%Y Cf. A000110, A040027, A045501, A045499, A045500, A186020, A160185.
