COMMENT

Also T(n,k) = number of derangements of {1..n} with k orbits.

Also T(n,k) = number of permutations of {1..n} with k cycles of length >= 2.

FORMULA

E.g.f. 1 + Sum_{1 <= 2k <= n} T(n, k)*t^n*u^k/n! = exp(-t*u)*(1-t)^(-u).

Recurrence: T(n, k) = (n-1)*(T(n-1, k) + T(n-2, k-1)) for 1<=k<=n/2 with boundary conditions T(0, 0)=1, T(n, 0)=0 for n>=1, T(n, k)=0 for k>n/2. - David Callan (callan(AT)stat.wisc.edu), May 16 2005
