%N Triangle interpolating between the subsets of an n-set (A000079) and the trees on n labeled nodes (A000272) (read by rows).

%C Formatted as a square array:

%C 1st row is A000079(n). Subsets of an n-set.

%C 2nd row is A036290(n+1). Special (n+1)-subsets of a 3n-set partitioned into 3-blocks.

%C 2nd column is A066274(n+1). Endofunctions of [n] such that 1 is not a fixed point.

%C 1st column is A000272(n+2). Trees on n labeled nodes (Cayley's formula).

%C Alternating sum of rows in the triangle, Sum{k=0..n} (-1)^(n-k) * T(n,k)) = n! (A000142(n)).

%C This triangle gives the coefficient of Sidi's polynomials D_{n,2,n}(-z)/(-z), for n >= 0. See [Sidi 1980]. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Oct 27 2022
