Also called permutation coefficients.
Also falling factorials triangle A068424 with column a(n,0)=1 and row a(0,1)=1 else a(0,k)=0, added. - Wolfdieter Lang, Nov 07 2003
Contribution from Johannes W. Meijer (meijgia(AT)hotmail.com), Oct 16 2009: (Start)
The higher order exponential integrals E(x,m,n) are defined in A163931 and for information about the asymptotic expansion of E(x,m=1,n) see A130534. The asymptotic expansions for n = 1, 2, 3, 4, ... , lead to the right hand columns of the triangle given above.

E.g.f.: sum T(n,k) x^n/n! y^k = exp(x)/(1-x*y). - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Aug 19 2002
Equals A007318 * A136572 - Gary W. Adamson (qntmpkt(AT)yahoo.com), Jan 07 2008
T(n, k) = n*T(n-1, k-1) = k*T(n-1, k-1)+T(n-1, k) = n*T(n-1, k)/(n-k) = (n-k+1)*T(n, k-1) - Henry Bottomley (se16(AT)btinternet.com), Mar 29 2001
T(n, k) = n!/(n-k)! if n >= k >= 0 else 0. G.f. for k-th column k!*x^k/(1-x)^(k+1), k >= 0. E.g.f. for n-th row (1+x)^n, n >= 0.
Sum T(n, k)x^k = permanent of n X n matrix a_ij = (x+1 if i=j, x otherwise). - Michael Somos Mar 05 2004
Ramanujan psi_1(k, x) polynomials evaluated at n+1. - Ralf Stephan, Apr 16 2004
E.g.f. sum T(n,k) x^n/n! y^k/k! = e^{x+xy}. - Frank Adams-Watters (FrankTAW(AT)Netscape.net), Feb 07 2006
The triangle is the binomial transform of an infinite matrix with (1, 1, 2, 6, 24...) in the main diagonal and the rest zeros. - Gary W. Adamson (qntmpkt(AT)yahoo.com), Nov 20 2006
G.f.: 1/(1-x-xy/(1-xy/(1-x-2xy/(1-2xy/(1-x-3xy/(1-3xy/(1-x-4xy/(1-4xy/(1-... (continued fraction). [From Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Feb 11 2009]
