COMMENT
|
f_n has degree n(n-1), so n-th row of table has n(n-1)+1 entries. Each row is palindromic. The sum of the terms in the n-th row is n!. The first n+1 terms of the n-th row are the same as the first n terms of A052847.
The 'major index' maj(p) of a permutation p = a_1 a_2 ... a_n is the sum of all i such that a_i > a_(i+1). f_n(q) = sum_p q^(maj(p)+maj(p^(-1))), where the sum is over all permutations of {1,2,...,n}.

FORMULA
|
f_n(q) = sum_r=1..n (-1)^(r+1) q^(r(r-1)/2) (q)_(n-1) (q)_n / ((q)_(r) ((q)_(n-r))^2) f_(n-r)(q) for n>=1.
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
f_0 = f_1 = 1, f_2 = 1+q^2, f_3 = 1+q^2+2q^3+q^4+q^6, so sequence begins 1; 1; 1,0,1; 1,0,1,2,1,0,1; ...
