Sum((k*(k + 1))^(m), k=0..N-1)=Sum(F(m,i)*N^(2*m-2*i+1),i=0..m), m=0,1,2,...

The coefficients F(m,i) are dual to Faulhaber coefficients, because they are obtained from the inverse expression Sum((k*(k + 1))^(m), k=0..N-1) to Faulhaber's formula from Sum((k)^(2*m-1), k=0..N-1) and there holds the identity F(m+i-1,i)=(-1)^i Fe(-m,i), where Fe(-m,i)=A093558(-m,i)/A093559(-m,i) is a Faulhaber coefficient for the sums of even powers of the first N-1 integers (for details see the reference 1, from p. 19).

Formula

a(m,k)=numerator(F(m,k)) with:

1) recursion, F(x,0) = 1/(2*x+1) and 2*(m-k)*(2*m-2*k+1)*F(m,k)=2*m*(2*m-1)*F(m-1,k)+m*(m-1)*F(m-2,k-1);

2) explicit formula F(m,k) = (1/(2*m-2*k+1))sum(binomial(m,2*k-i)*binomial(2*m-2*k+i,i) Bernoulli(i), i=0..2*k)

Mathematica

f[m_, k_] := (1/(2*m - 2*k + 1))* Sum[Binomial[m, 2*k - i]*Binomial[2*m - 2*k + i, i]*BernoulliB[i], {i, 0, 2 k}];
a[m_, k_] := f[m, k] // Numerator;
Table[a[m, k], {m, 0, 10}, {k, 0, m}] // Flatten
