A186361 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of permutations of {1,2,...,n} having k cycles that are not up-down. A cycle (b(1), b(2), ...) is said to be up-down if, when written with its smallest element in the first position, it satisfies b(1)<b(2)>b(3)<... . 2

%N Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of permutations of {1,2,...,n} having k cycles that are not up-down. A cycle (b(1), b(2), ...) is said to be up-down if, when written with its smallest element in the first position, it satisfies b(1)<b(2)>b(3)<... .

%C Row n contains 1 + floor(n/3) entries.

%C Sum of entries in row n is n!.

%C T(n,0)=A000111(n+1) (the Euler or up-down numbers).

%C Sum(k*T(n,k),k>=0) = A186362(n).

%F E.g.f.=(1-sin z)^{s-1}/(1-z)^s.

%F The trivariate e.g.f. H(t,s,z) of the permutations of {1,2,...,n} with respect to size (marked by z), number of up-down cycles (marked by t), and number of cycles that are not up-down (marked by s) is given by H(t,s,z)=(1-sin z)^{s-t}/(1-z)^s.

%e T(3,1)=1 because we have (123).

%e T(4,1)=8 because we have (1432), (1)(234), (1342), (1243), (123)(4), (1234), (124)(3), and (134)(2).
