%N Triangle related to the o.g.f.s. of the right-hand columns of A130534 (E(x,m=1,n)).

%C The asymptotic expansions of the higher-order exponential integral E(x,m=1,n) lead to triangle A130524, see A163931 for information on E(x,m,n). The o.g.f.s. of the right-hand columns of triangle A130534 have a nice structure: gf(p) = W1(z,p)/(1-z)^(2*p-1) with p = 1 for the first right-hand column, p = 2 for the second right-hand column, etc. The coefficients of the W1(z,p) polynomials lead to the triangle given above, n >= 1 and 1 <= m <= n. Our triangle is the same as A112007 with an extra right-hand column, see also the second Eulerian triangle A008517. The row sums of our triangle lead to A001147.

%C We observe that the row sums of the triangles A163936 (m=1), A163937 (m=2), A163938 (m=3) and A163939 (m=4) for z=1 lead to A001147, A001147 (minus a(0)), A001879 and A000457 which are the first four left-hand columns of the triangle of the Bessel coefficients A001497 or, if one wishes, the right-hand columns of A001498. We checked this phenomenon for a few more values of m and found that this pattern persists: m = 5 leads to A001880, m=6 to A001881, m=7 to A038121 and m=8 to A130563 which are the next left- (right-) hand columns of A001497 (A001498). An interesting phenomenon.

%C If one assumes the triangle not (1,1) based but (0,0) based, one has T(n, k) = E2(n, n-k), where E2(n, k) are the second-order Eulerian numbers A340556. - _Peter Luschny_, Feb 12 2021

%F Assuming offset = 0 the T(n, k) are the coefficients of recursively defined polynomials. T(n, k) = [x^k] x^n*E2poly(n, 1/x), where E2poly(n, x) = x*(x - 1)^(2*n)*d_{x}((1 - x)^(1 - 2*n)*E2poly(n - 1, x))) for n >= 1 and E2poly(0, x) = 1. - _Peter Luschny_, Feb 12 2021
