Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

A108458
Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of set partitions of {1,2,...,n} in which the last block is the singleton {k}, 1<=k<=n; the blocks are ordered with increasing least elements.

COMMENTS
Another way to obtain this sequence (with offset 0): Form the infinite array U(n,k) = number of labeled partitions of (n,k) into pairs (i,j), for n >= 0, k >= 0 and read it by antidiagonals. In other words, U(n,k) = number of partitions of n black objects labeled 1..n and k white objects labeled 1..k. Each block must have at least one white object.
Then T(n,k)=U(n+k,k+1). Thus the two versions are related like "multichoose" to "choose". - Augustine O. Munagi, Jul 16 2007

FORMULA
T(n,1)=0 for n>=2; T(n,2)=1 for n>=2; T(n,3)=1+2^(n-3) for n>=3; T(n,n)=B(n-1), T(n,n-1)=B(n-1)-B(n-2), where B(q) are the Bell numbers (A000110).
Double e.g.f.: exp(exp(x)*(exp(y)-1)).
U(n,k) = Sum_{i=0..k} i^(n-k)*Stirling2(k,i). - Vladeta Jovovic, Jul 12 2007
EXAMPLE
Triangle T(n,k) starts:
1;
0,1;
0,1,2;
0,1,3,5;
0,1,5,10,15;
T(5,3)=5 because we have 1245|3, 145|2|3, 14|25|3, 15|24|3 and 1|245|3.
The arrays U(n,k) starts:
1 0 0 0 0 ...
1 1 1 1 1 ...
2 3 5 9 17 ...
5 10 22 52 130 ...
15 37 99 283 855 ...
MATHEMATICA
T[n_, k_] := Sum[If[n == k, 1, i^(n-k)]*StirlingS2[k, i], {i, 0, k}];
