A110141 Triangle, read by rows, where row n lists the denominators of unit fraction coefficients of the products of {c_k}, in ascending order by indices of {c_k}, in the coefficient of x^n in exp(Sum_{k>=1} c_k/k*x^k). +0

COMMENT

Row n starts with n!, after which the following pattern holds. When terms of row n are divided by a list of factorials, with (n-j-1)! repeated A002865(j+1) times in the list as j=1..n-1, the result is the initial terms of A110142. E.g. row 6 is: {720,48,18,16,8,6,5,48,8,18,6}; divide by respective factorials: {6!,4!,3!,2!,2!,1!,1!,0!,0!,0!,0!} with {4!,3!,2!,1!,0!} respectively occurring {1,1,2,2,4} times (A002865), yields the initial terms of A110142: {1,2,3,8,4,6,5,48,8,18,6}.

The term of the sequence corresponding to the product c_1^{n_1}c_2^{n_2}...c_k^{n_k} is equal to the number of elements in the centraliser of a permutation of n_1+2n_2+...+kn_k elements whose cycle type is 1^{n_1}2^{n_2}...k^{n^k}. (This fact is very standard, in particular, for the theory of symmetric functions.) [From Vladimir Dotsenko (vdots(AT)maths.tcd.ie), Apr 19 2009]

FORMULA

Number of terms in row n is A000041(n) (partition numbers). The unit fractions of each row sum to unity: Sum_{k=1..A000041(n)} 1/T(n, k) = 1.

EXAMPLE

Coefficients [x^n] exp(c1*x + c2/2*x^2 + c3/3*x^3 +...) begin:

[x^0]: 1;

[x^1]: 1*c1;

[x^2]: 1/2*c1^2 + 1/2*c2;

[x^3]: 1/6*c1^3 + 1/2*c1*c2 + 1/3*c3;

[x^4]: 1/24*c1^4 + 1/4*c1^2*c2 + 1/3*c1*c3 + 1/8*c2^2 + 1/4*c4;

[x^5]: 1/120*c1^5 + 1/12*c1^3*c2 + 1/6*c1^2*c3 + 1/8*c1*c2^2 + 1/4*c1*c4 + 1/6*c2*c3 + 1/5*c5;

[x^6]: 1/720*c1^6 + 1/48*c1^4*c2 + 1/18*c1^3*c3 + 1/16*c1^2*c2^2 + 1/8*c1^2*c4 + 1/6*c1*c2*c3 + 1/5*c1*c5 + 1/48*c2^3 + 1/8*c2*c4 + 1/18*c3^2 + 1/6*c6;
