From Robert Israel, May 20 2016: (Start)
T(n,k) = 1 + Sum_{j=1..n-1} binomial(n-1,j-1)*T(n-j,k-1).
G.f. for columns g_k(z) satisfies g_k(z) = (z/(1-z))*(1+ g_{k-1}(z/(1-z))) with g_1(z) = z/(1-2z).
Thus g_k is a rational function: it has a simple pole at z=1/j for 1<=j<=k+1 except j=k, and it has a finite limit at infinity (so the degree of the numerator is k). This implies that column k satisfies the recurrences listed above, whose coefficients correspond to the expansion of (z-1/(k+1))* Product_{j=1..k-1}(z - 1/j).
