%F T(m,n) = (1/24)mn([4m(n^2-1)+3n(m^2-1)] if m is odd.

%F T(m,n) = (1/24)m^2*n[4(n^2-1)+3mn] if m is even.

%F The Wiener polynomial p[n](t) for C(2m+1) x P(n) satisfies the recurrence relation p[n]=p[n-1]+p[1]+(2m+1)*a[n], where a[n]=[t+2*sum(t^j,j=2..m+1)*sum(t^j,j=0..n-2) and p[1]=(2m+1)*sum(t^j,j=1..m).

%F The Wiener polynomial q[n](t) for C(2m) x P(n) satisfies the recurrence relation q[n]=q[n-1]+q[1]+2m*b[n], where b[n]=[t+t^{m+1}+2*sum(t^j,j=2..m)*sum(t^j,j=0..n-2) and q[1]=2m*sum(t^j,j=1..m-1)+m*t^m.

%F The above recurrence relations yield simple expressions for the Wiener polynomials (however, they are too long for being reproduced here).
