%F R_n(m) = n*2^(m-1)* (T(n,1+m/2)-1)^(m-1)/m, where T(n,x) are Chebyshev polynomials, A008310.

%F Each column of the array is a linear divisibility sequence. Conjecturally, the k-th column satisfies a linear recurrence of order 4*k - 2. - _Peter Bala_, May 04 2014

%e The array starts in row n=1 as:

%e 1, 1, 3, 16, 125

%e 2, 12, 294, 16384, 1640250

%e 3, 75, 11664, 5647152, 6291456000

%e 4, 384, 367500, 1528823808,

%e 5, 1805, 10609215,
