COMMENTS
The sequence reads the antidiagonals of the table [a(n,k)] (for k >= 0 and n >= 1). See examples below.
a(n,k) is the number of permutations of [n] avoiding the generalized patterns 1(k+2)-(u_1+1)-...-(u_k+1) for all permutations u of [k].
a(n,k) is the number of classes of the k-twist congruence on S_n, defined as the transitive closure of the rewriting rule UacV_1b_1...V_kb_kW = UcaV_1b_1...V_kb_kW for a < b_1, ..., b_k < c in [n] and U, V_1, ..., V_k, W some (possibly empty) words on [n].
a(n,k) is the number of (k,n)-twists whose contact graph is acyclic. A (k,n)-twist is a reduced pipe dream for the permutation (1, ..., k, n+k, ..., k+1, n+k+1, ..., n+2k). The contact graph of a (k,n)-twist is the graph with a node for each pipe and an oriented arc for each elbow from the pipe passing southeast of the elbow to the pipe passing northwest of the elbow.
a(n,k) is the number of vertices of the brick polytope for the word c^k w_o(c) where c = 1 2 ... n-1 is the linear Coxeter element in type A.

FORMULA
a(n,0) = 1.
a(n,1) = binomial(2n,n)/(n+1) (Catalan number A000108).
When n <= k+1, a(n,k) = n! (factorial A000142).
