COMMENTS

A block of a permutation is a maximal sequence of consecutive integers which appear in consecutive positions. For example, the permutation 5412367 has 4 blocks: 5, 4, 123, and 67.

FORMULA
|
T(n,k) = Sum(binomial(k+j,j)*binomial((n+k+2)/2,k+j-1)*[d(k+j)+d(k+j-1)], j=0..(n-k)/2) if n and k are of the same parity; T(n,k)=0 if n and k have opposite parities (0<=k<=n).
T(n,n) = T(n,n-2) = d(n)+d(n-1) = A000255(n-1), where d(i)=A000166(i) are the derangement numbers.
Sum of entries in row n = n! = A000142(n).

EXAMPLE
|
T(3,1)=3 because we have (123), 23(1), and (3)12 (the blocks of odd length are shown between parentheses). T(4,0)=2 because we have 1234 and 3412.

MAPLE

d[ -1] := 0: d[0] := 1: for n to 50 do d[n] := n*d[n-1]+(-1)^n end do: T := proc (n, k) if `mod`(n+k, 2) = 1 then 0 else sum(binomial(k+j, j)*binomial((1/2)*n+(1/2)*k-1, k+j-1)*(d[k+j]+d[k+j-1]), j = 0 .. (1/2)*n-(1/2)*k) end if end proc; for n from 0 to 10 do seq(T(n, k), k = 0 .. n) end do; # yields sequence in triangular form
