COMMENT

The entire matrix log of triangle A118180 is determined by column 0 (this sequence): [LOG(A118180)](n,k) = a(n-k)/(n-k)*(3^k)^(n-k) for n>k>=0.

FORMULA

G.f.: x/(1-x)^2 = Sum_{n>=0} a(n)*x^n/(1-3^n*x). By using the inverse transformation: a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} k*A118183(n-k)*(3^k)^(n-k) for n>=0. a(3^n) is divisible by 3^n.

EXAMPLE

Column 0 of LOG(A118180) = [0, 1, -1/2, 3/3, -23/4, 329/5, 18231/6,...].

The g.f. is illustrated by:

x/(1-x)^2 = x + 2*x^2 + 3*x^3 + 4*x^4 + 5*x^5 + 6*x^6 +...

= x/(1-3*x) - x^2/(1-9*x) + 3*x^3/(1-27*x) - 23*x^4/(1-81*x) + 329*x^5/(1-243*x) + 18231*x^6/

(1-729*x) - 22030373*x^7/(1-2187*x) +...

PROGRAM

(PARI) {a(n)=local(T=matrix(n+1, n+1, r, c, if(r>=c, (3^(c-1))^(r-c))), L=sum(m=1, #T, -(T^0-T)^m/m)); return(n*L[n+1, 1])}
