Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of permutations of {1,2,...,n} having k cycles that are either nonincreasing or of length 1 (0<=k<=n). A cycle (b(1), b(2), ...) is said to be increasing if, when written with its smallest element in the first position, it satisfies b(1) < b(2) < b(3) < ... .

Sum of entries in row n is n!.
T(n,0) = A000296(n).
Sum_{k=0..n} k*T(n,k) = A186760(n).

FORMULA
E.g.f.: G(t,z)=exp((1-t)(exp(z)-1-z))/(1-z)^t.
The 4-variate e.g.f. H(u,v,w,z) of the permutations of {1,2,...,n} with respect to size (marked by z), number of fixed points (marked by u), number of increasing cycles of length >=2 (marked by v), and number of nonincreasing cycles (marked by w) is given by H(u,v,w,z)=exp(uz+v(exp(z)-1-z)+w(1-exp(z))/(1-z)^w. Remark: the nonincreasing cycles are necessarily of length >=3. We have: G(t,z)=H(t,1,t,z).
EXAMPLE
T(3,1)=4 because we have (1)(23), (12)(3), (13)(2), and (132).
T(4,4)=1 because we have (1)(2)(3)(4).

MAPLE
G := exp((1-t)*(exp(z)-1-z))/(1-z)^t: Gser := simplify(series(G, z = 0, 13)): for n from 0 to 10 do P[n] := sort(expand(factorial(n)*coeff(Gser, z, n))) end do: for n from 0 to 10 do seq(coeff(P[n], t, j), j = 0 .. n) end do; # yields sequence in triangular form
# second Maple program:
b:= proc(n) option remember; expand(
`if`(n=0, 1, add(b(n-i)*binomial(n-1, i-1)*
`if`(i=1, x, 1+x*((i-1)!-1)), i=1..n)))
