COMMENTS
Also called cross polytope and hyperoctahedron. For n=1, the figure is a line segment with two vertices. For n=2 the figure is a square with four edges. For n=3 the figure is an octahedron with eight triangular faces. For n=4, the figure is a 16-cell with sixteen tetrahedral facets. The Schläfli symbol, {3,...,3,4}, of the regular n-dimensional orthoplex (n>1) consists of n-2 threes followed by a four. Each of its 2^n facets is an (n-1)-dimensional simplex. The chiral colorings of its facets come in pairs, each the reflection of the other.
Also the number of chiral pairs of colorings of the vertices of a regular n-dimensional orthotope (cube) using exactly k colors.

FORMULA
A325014(n,k) = Sum_{j=1..2^n} T(n,j) * binomial(k,j).
T(n,k) = A325016(n,k) - A325017(n,k) = (A325016(n,k) - A325019(n,k)) / 2 = A325017(n,k) - A325019(n,k).
EXAMPLE
Triangle begins with T(1,1):
0 1
0 0 3 3
0 1 63 662 2400 3900 2940 840
For T(2,3)=3, each square has one of the three colors on two adjacent edges.
