%N Triangle starting at row 3 read by rows of the number of permutations in the n-th Dihedral group which are the product of k disjoint cycles, d(n,k), n >= 3, 1 <= k <= n.

%C The multivariable row polynomials give n times the cycle index for the Dihedral group D_n, called Z(D_n) (see the MathWorld link with the Harary reference). For example, 12*Z(D_6) = 2*(y_6)^1 + 2*(y_3)^2 + 4*(y_2)^3+3*(y_1)^2*(y_2)^2 + 1*(y_1)^6.

%F d(n,k) = A054523(n,k) + d'(n,k), where: If n is odd, then d'(n,k)= n when k=(n+1)/2 and d'(n,k)=0 otherwise. If n is even, then d'(n,k)=n/2 when k=n/2, (n+2)/2 and d'(n,k)=0 otherwise.
