COMMENT

Reverse of A008279. Row sums are A000522. Diagonal sums are A003470. Rows of inverse matrix begin {1}, {-1,1}, {0,-2,1}, {0,0,-3,1}, {0,0,0,-4,1} ... The signed lower triangular matrix (-1)^(n+k)n!/k! has as row sums the signed rencontres numbers sum{k=0..n, (-1)^(n+k)n!/k!}. (See A000166). It has matrix inverse 1 1,1 0,2,1 0,0,3,1 0,0,0,4,1...

Exponential Riordan array [1/(1-x),x]; column k has e.g.f. x^k/(1-x). - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Mar 27 2007

Comments from Tom Copeland (tcjpn(AT)msn.com), Nov 01 2007: (Start) T is the umbral extension of n!*Lag[n,(.)!*Lag[.,x,-1],0] = (1-D)^(-1) x^n = (-1)^n * n! * Lag(n,x,-1-n) = sum(j=0,...,n) Binom(n,j) * j! * x^(n-j) = sum(j=0,...,n) (n!/j!) x^j. The inverse operator is A132013 with generalizations discussed in A132014.

b = T*a can be characterized several ways in terms of a(n) and b(n) or their o.g.f.'s A(x) and B(x).

1) b(n) = n! Lag[n,(.)!*Lag[.,a(.),-1],0] , umbrally,

2) b(n) = (-1)^n n! Lag(n,a(.),-1-n)

3) b(n) = sum(j=0,...,n) (n!/j!) a(j)

4) B(x) = (1-xDx)^(-1) A(x) , formally

5) B(x) = sum(j=0,1,...) (xDx)^j A(x)

6) B(x) = sum(j=0,1,...) x^j * D^j * x^j A(x)

7) B(x) = sum(j=0,1,...) j! * x^j * L(j,-:xD:,0) A(x) where Lag(n,x,m) are the Laguerre polynomials of order m, D the derivative w.r.t. x, and (:xD:)^j = x^j * D^j. Truncating the operator series at the j = n term gives an o.g.f. for b(0) through b(n).

c = (0!,1!,2!,3!,4!,...) is the sequence associated to T under the list partition transform and the associated operations described in A133314 so T(n,k) = binomial(n,k)*c(n-k). The reciprocal sequence is d = (1,-1,0,0,0,...). (End)

FORMULA

T(n, k)=n!/k! if n >= k >= 0 else 0.

T(n, k) = Sum[i=k..n, |S1(n+1, i+1)S2(i, k)| * (-1)^i ], with S1, S2 the Stirling numbers.
