FORMULA
T(n,k) = t(n-k, k); t(0,0) = 1, t(n,m) = 0 if n < 0 or m < 0, else t(n,m) = f(m)*t(n-1,m) + f(n)*t(n,m-1), where f(x) = 9*x + 2.
Sum_{k=0..n} T(n, k) = A144829(n).
From G. C. Greubel, Mar 24 2022: (Start)
T(n, k) = (a*k + b)*T(n-1, k) + (a*(n-k) + b)*T(n-1, k-1), with T(n, 0) = 1, a = 9, and b = 2.
T(n, n-k) = T(n, k).
T(n, 0) = A000079(n).
T(n, 1) = (1/9)*(4*11^n - 2^n*(9*n + 4)).
T(n, 2) = (1/81)*(26*20^n - 4*(4+9*n)*11^n - 2^(n-1)*(20 + 9*n - 81*n^2)). (End)
