%N Array T read by ascending antidiagonals: T(n, k) = Sum_{d divides n} T(d, k-1) with T(n, 0) = 1.

%C T(n, k) is called the generalized divisor function (see Beekman).

%C As an array with offset n=1, k=0, T(n,k) is the number of length-k chains of divisors of n. For example, the T(4,3) = 10 chains are: 111, 211, 221, 222, 411, 421, 422, 441, 442, 444. - _Gus Wiseman_, Aug 04 2022

%F T(n, k) = Sum_{d divides n} T(d, k-1) with T(n, 0) = 1 (see Theorem 3 in Beekman's article).

%F T(i*j, k) = T(i, k)*T(j, k) if i and j are coprime positive integers (see Lemma 1 in Beekman's article).

%F T(p^m, k) = binomial(m+k, k) for every prime p (see Lemma 2 in Beekman's article).
