FORMULA

T(n, k)=6(4k+3)n!binomial(3k-1, k-3)/[(2k+3)(k+2)! ] for k<n; T(n, n)=2(3n)!/[(2n+1)!(n+1)! ].

EXAMPLE

Example: T(4,3)=2 because 2341 and 3241 are the only permutations of [4] which are not 2-stack sortable but their initial segments of length 3 (i.e. 234 and 324 are 2-stack sortable.

MAPLE

T:=proc(n, k) if k<n then 6*(4*k+3)*n!*binomial(3*k-1, k-3)/(2*k+3)/(k+2)! elif k=n then 2*(3*n)!/(2*n+1)!/(n+1)! else 0 fi end: seq(seq(T(n, k), k=1..n), n=1..12);
