%F T(n,k,0) = 1, T(n,k,1) = (n-1)(k-1), T(n,k,2) = (n^2(k-1) - n(2k^2+5k-13) + (k^2+13k-24))/2.

%F Sum_{u=1..(n-1)^2} T(n,n,u) = A045846(n).

%e For n = 4, k = 3, there are 4 tilings that contain 2 isolated nodes, so T(4,3,2) = 4. A 2 X 2 square contains 1 isolated node. Consider that each tiling is composed of ones and zeros where a one represents a node with one or more links to its neighbors and a zero represents a node with no links to its neighbors. Then the 4 tilings are:

%e 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

%e 1 0 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 0 1

%e 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

%e 1 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 0 1

%e 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
