COMMENTS
An n-dimensional simplex has n+1 vertices and (n+1)*n/2 edges. For n=1, the figure is a line segment with one edge. For n-2, the figure is a triangle with three edges. For n=3, the figure is a tetrahedron with six edges. The Schläfli symbol, {3,...,3}, of the regular n-dimensional simplex consists of n-1 threes. Two unoriented colorings are the same if congruent; chiral pairs are counted as one.
T(n,k) is also the number of unoriented colorings of (n-2)-dimensional regular simplices in an n-dimensional simplex using exactly k colors. Thus, T(2,k) is also the number of unoriented colorings of the vertices (0-dimensional simplices) of an equilateral triangle.

FORMULA
The algorithm used in the Mathematica program below assigns each permutation of the vertices to a partition of n+1. It then determines the number of permutations for each partition and the cycle index for each partition.
A327084(n,k) = Sum_{j=1..(n+1)*n/2} T(n,j) * binomial(k,j).
A(n,k) = A327087(n,k) - A327089(n,k) = (A327087(n,k) + A327090(n,k)) / 2 = A327089(n,k) + A327090(n,k).
EXAMPLE
Triangle begins with T(1,1):
1
1 2 1
1 9 36 74 75 30
1 32 693 7720 44150 138312 247380 252000 136080 30240
For T(2,1)=1, all edges of the triangle are the same color. For T(2,2)=2, the edges are AAB and ABB. For T(2,3)=2, the chiral pair is ABC-ACB.
