A140709 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of deco polyominoes of height n in which the maximal number of initial consecutive columns ending at the same level is k (1<=k<=n). (A deco polyomino is a directed column-convex polyomino in which the height, measured along the diagonal, is attained only in the last column). +0

COMMENT

Sum of entries in row n is n! (A000142).

T(n,1)=A132371(n).

Sum(k*T(n,k),k=1..n)=A140710(n).

FORMULA

T(n,k)=binom(n-1,k-1)+sum(j!*(j-1)*binom(n-1-j,k-1),j=2..n-1). Rec. rel.: T(n,k)=T(n-1,k)+T(n-1,k-1) for n,k>=2.

EXAMPLE

T(2,1)=1 (the vertical domino); T(2,2)=1 (the horizontal domino); T(3,1)=3 because we have (3), (1,2), and (2,1,1), where (a,b,c,...) stands for a polyomino with columns of lengths a,b,c,..., starting at level 0.

MAPLE

T:=proc(n, k) options operator, arrow: binomial(n-1, k-1)+sum(factorial(j)*(j-1)*binomial(n-1-j, k-1), j=2..n-1) end proc: for n to 11 do seq(T(n, k), k=1..n) end do; # yields sequence in triangular form
