Comments

T(n,k) is also the number of generalized Bethe trees with n edges and k leaves.

A generalized Bethe tree is a rooted tree in which vertices at the same level have the same degree; they are called uniform trees in the Goldberg and Livshits reference.

There is a simple bijection between generalized Bethe trees with n edges and partitions of n in which each part is divisible by the next (the parts are given by the number of edges at the successive levels). We have the correspondences: number of edges --- sum of parts; root degree --- last part; number of leaves --- first part; height --- number of parts.

Sum of entries in row n is A003238(n+1).

Apparently, Sum(k*T(n,k), k>=1) = A038046(n+1).

Formula

T(n,1)=1; T(n,k) = Sum_{j|k}T(n-k,j); T(n,k)=0 if k>n.

Example

T(7,4)=2 because we have (4,2,1) and (4,1,1,1).

with(numtheory): T := proc (n, k) if k = 1 then 1 elif n < k then 0 else add(T(n-k, divisors(k)[j]), j = 1 .. tau(k)) end if end proc: for n to 18 do seq(T(n, k), k = 1 .. n) end do; # yields sequence in triangular form
