Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

COMMENTS
Rows of the square array have g.f. (1+x)/((1-x)(1-kx)). They are the partial sums of the coordination sequences for the infinite tree of valency k. Row sums are A112740.
Rows of the square array are successively: A000012, A040000, A005408, A033484, A048473, A020989, A057651, A061801, A238275, A238276, A138894, A090843, A199023. - Philippe Deléham, Feb 22 2014

FORMULA
As a square array read by antidiagonals, T(n, k)=sum{j=0..k, (2-0^j)*(n-1)^(k-j)}; T(n, k)=(n(n-1)^k-2)/(n-2), n<>2, T(2, n)=2n+1; T(n, k)=sum{j=0..k, (n(n-1)^j-0^j)/(n-1)}, j<>1. As a triangle read by rows, T(n, k)=if(k<=n, sum{j=0..k, (2-0^j)*(n-k-1)^(k-j)}, 0).
