COMMENT

a(n,m)= ^2P_n^m in the notation of the given reference with a(0,0) := 1. The monic row polynomials s(n,x) := sum(a(n,m)*x^m,m=0..n) which are s(n,x)= product(x-(2+k),k=0..n-1), n >= 1 and s(0,x)=1 satisfy s(n,x+y) = sum(binomial(n,k)*s(k,x)*S1(n-k,y),k=0..n), with the Stirling1 polynomials S1(n,x)=sum(A008275(n,m)*x^m, m=1..n) and S1(0,x)=1.

In the umbral calculus (see the S. Roman reference given in A048854) the s(n,x) polynomials are called Sheffer polynomials for (exp(2*t),exp(t)-1).

See A143491 for the unsigned version of this array and A143494 for the inverse. [From Peter Bala (pbala(AT)toucansurf.com), Aug 25 2008]

FORMULA

a(n, m)= a(n-1, m-1) -(n+1)*a(n-1, m), n >= m >= 0; a(n, m) := 0, n<m; a(n, -1) := 0, a(0, 0)=1.

E.g.f. for m-th column of signed triangle: ((ln(1+x))^m)/(m!*(1+x)^2).

Triangle (signed) = [ -2, -1, -3, -2, -4, -3, -5, -4, -6, -5, ...] DELTA [1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, ...]; triangle (unsigned) = [2, 1, 3, 2, 4, 3, 5, 4, 6, 5, ...] DELTA [1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, ...], where DELTA is Deleham's operator defined in A084938 (unsigned version in A143491).

E.g.f.: (1+y)^(x-2). - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), May 17 2004

With P(n,t) = sum(j=0,...,n-2) a(n-2,j) * t^j and P(1,t) = -1 and P(0,t) = 1, then G(x,t) = -1 + exp[P(.,t)*x] = [(1+x)^t - 1 - t^2 * x] / [t(t-1)], whose compositional inverse in x about 0 is given in A074060. G(x,0) = -ln(1+x) and G(x,1) = (1+x) ln(1+x) - 2x . G(x,q^2) occurs in formulae on pages 194-196 of the Manin reference. - Tom Copeland (tcjpn(AT)msn.com), Feb 17 2008

If we define f(n,i,a)=sum(binomial(n,k)*stirling1(n-k,i)*product(-a-j,j=0..k-1),k=0..n-i), then T(n,i) = f(n,i,2), for n=1,2,...;i=0...n [From Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), Dec 21 2008]
