The (3, 2)-Lah numbers T(n, k) count ordered 3-tuples (pi(1), pi(2), pi(3)) of partitions of the set {1, ..., n} into k linearly ordered blocks (lists, for short) such that the numbers 1, 2 are in distinct lists, and bl(pi(1)) = bl(pi(2))= bl(pi(3)) where for i = {1, 2, 3} and pi(i) = b(1)^i, b(2)^i, ..., b(k)^i, where b(1)^i, b(2)^i, ..., b(k)^i are the blocks of partition pi(i), bl(pi(i)) = {min(b(1))^i, min(b(2))^i, ..., min(b(k))^i} is the set of block leaders, i.e., of minima of the lists in partition pi(i).
The (3, 2)-Lah numbers T(n, k) are the (m, r)-Lah numbers for m=3 and r=2.
More generally, the (m, r)-Lah numbers count ordered m-tuples (pi(1), pi(2), ..., pi(m)) of partitions of the set {1, 2, ..., n} into k linearly ordered blocks (lists, for short) such that the numbers 1, 2, ..., r are in distinct lists, and bl(pi(1)) = bl(pi(2)) = ... = bl(pi(m)) where for i = {1, 2, ..., m} and pi(i) = {b(1)^i, b(2)^i, ..., b(k)^i}, where b(1)^i, b(2)^i, ..., b(k)^i are the blocks of partition pi(i), bl(pi(i)) = {min(b(1))^i, min(b(2))^i, ..., min (b(k))^i} is the set of block leaders, i.e., of minima of the lists in partition pi(i).

FORMULA
|
Recurrence relation: T(n, k) = T(n-1, k-1) + (n+k-1)^3*T(n-1, k).
Explicit formula: T(n, k) = Sum_{3 <= j(1) < j(2) < ... < j(n-k) <= n} (2j(1)-2)^3 * (2j(2)-3)^3 * ... * (2j(n-k)-(n-k+1))^3.
Special cases:
T(n, k) = 0 for n < k or k < 2.
T(n, n) = 1.
T(n, 2) = (A143497(n,2))^3 = ((n+1)!)^3/216.
T(n, n-1) = 2^3 * Sum_{j=2..n-1} j^3.

An example for T(4, 3). The corresponding partitions are
pi(1) = {(1),(2),(3,4)},
pi(2) = {(1),(2),(4,3)},
pi(3) = {(1),(2,3),(4)},
pi(4) = {(1),(3,2),(4)},
pi(5) = {(1),(2,4),(3)},
pi(6) = {(1),(4,2),(3)},
pi(7) = {(1,3),(2),(4)},
pi(8) = {(3,1),(2),(4)},
pi(9) = {(1,4),(2),(3)},
pi(10) = {(4,1),(2),(3)}, since A143497 for n=4, k=3 equals 10. Sets of their block leaders are bl(pi(1)) = bl(pi(2)) = bl(pi(5)) = bl(pi(6)) = bl(pi(9)) = bl(pi(10)) = {1,2,3} and bl(pi(3)) = bl(pi(4)) = bl(pi(7)) = bl(pi(8)) = {1,2,4}.
Compute the number of ordered 3-tuples (i.e., ordered pairs) of partitions pi(1), pi(2), ..., pi(10) such that partitions in the same pair share the same set of block leaders. As there are six partitions with the set of block leaders equal to {1,2,3}, and four partitions with the set of block leaders equal to {1,2,4}, T(4, 3) = 6^3 + 4^3 = 280.
