COMMENTS
This is a transform of A046802 treating it as an array of h-vectors, so y is replaced by (y+1) in the e.g.f. for A046802.
An e.g.f. for the reversed row polynomials with signs is given by exp(a.(0;t)x) = [e^{(1+t)x} [1+t(1-e^(-x))]]^(-1) = 1 - (1+2t)x + (1+5t+5t^2)x^2/2! + ... . The reciprocal is an e.g.f. for the reversed face polynomials of the simplices A074909, i.e., exp(b.(0;t)x) = e^{(1+t)x} [1+t(1-e^(-x))] = 1 + (1+2t)x +(1+3t+3t^2) x^2/2! + ... , so the relations of A133314 apply between the two sets of polynomials. In particular, umbrally [a.(0;t)+b.(0;t)]^n vanishes except for n=0 for which it's unity, implying the two sets of Appell polynomials formed from the two bases, a_n(z;t) = (a.(0;t)+z)^n and b_n(z;t) = (b.(0;t) + z)^n, are an umbral compositional inverse pair, i.e., b_n(a.(x;t);t)= x^n = a_n(b.(x;t);t). Raising operators for these Appell polynomials are related to the polynomials of A028246, whose reverse polynomials are given by A123125 * A007318. Compare: A248727 = A007318 * A123125 * A007318 and A046802 = A007318 * A123125. See A074909 for definitions and related links. - Tom Copeland, Jan 21 2015
The o.g.f. for the umbral inverses is Og(x) = x / (1 - x b.(0;t)) = x / [(1-tx)(1-(1+t)x)] = x + (1+2t) x^2 + (1+3t+3t^2) x^3 + ... . Its compositional inverse is an o.g.f for signed A033282, the reverse f-polynomials for the simplicial duals of the Stasheff polytopes, or associahedra of type A, Oginv(x) =[1+(1+2t)x-sqrt[1+2(1+2t)x+x^2]] / (2t(1+t)x) = x - (1+2t) x^2 + (1+5t+5t^2) x^3 + ... . Contrast this with the o.g.f.s related to the corresponding h-polynomials in A046802. - Tom Copeland, Jan 24 2015

FORMULA
Let M(n,k)= sum{i=0,..,k-1, C(n,i)[(i-k)^i*(k-i+1)^(n-i)- (i-k+1)^i*(k-i)^(n-i)]} with M(n,0)=1. Then M(n,k)= A046802(n,k), and T(n,j)= sum(k=j,..,n, C(k,j)*M(n,k)) for j>0 with T(n,0)= 1 + sum(k=1,..,n, M(n,k)) for n>0 and T(0,0)=1.
E.g.f: y * exp[x*(y+1)]/[y+1-exp(x*y)].
Row sums are A007047. Row polynomials evaluated at -1 are unity. Row polynomials evaluated at -2 are A122045.
First column is A000522. Second column appears to be A036918/2 = (A001339-1)/2 = n*A000522(n)/2.
Second diagonal is A052944. (Changed from conjecture to fact on Nov 08 2016.)
The raising operator for the reverse row polynomials with row signs is R = x - (1+t) - t e^(-D) / [1 + t(1-e^(-D))] evaluated at x = 0, with D = d/dx. Also R = x - d/dD log[exp(a.(0;t)D], or R = - d/dz log[e^(-xz) exp(a.(0;t)z)] = - d/dz log[exp(a.(-x;t)z)] with the e.g.f. defined in the comments and z replaced by D. Note that t e ^(-D) / [1+t(1-e^(-D))] = t - (t+t^2) D + (t+3t^2+2t^3) D^2/2! - ... is an e.g.f. for the signed reverse row polynomials of A028246. - Tom Copeland, Jan 23 2015
Equals A007318*(padded A090582)*A007318*A097808 = A007318*(padded (A008292*A007318))*A007318*A097808 = A007318*A130850 = A007318*(mirror of A028246). Padded means in the same way that A097805 is padded A007318. - Tom Copeland, Nov 14 2016
Umbrally, the row polynomials are p_n(x) = (1 + q.(x))^n, where (q.(x))^k = q_k(x) are the row polynomials of A130850. - Tom Copeland, Nov 16 2016
From the previous umbral statement, OP(x,d/dy) y^n = (y + q.(x))^n, where OP(x,y) = exp[y * q.(x)] = x/((1+x)*exp(-x*y) - 1), the e.g.f. of A130850, so OP(x,d/dy) y^n evaluated at y = 1 is p_n(x), the n-th row polynomial of this entry, with offset 0. - Tom Copeland, Jun 25 2018
Consolidating some formulas in this entry and A046082, in umbral notation for concision, with all offsets 0: Let A_n(x;y) = (y + E.(x))^n, an Appell sequence in y where E.(x)^k = E_k(x) are the Eulerian polynomials of A123125. Then the row polynomials of A046802 (the h-polynomials of the stellahedra) are given by h_n(x) = A_n(x;1); the row polynomials of this entry (A248727, the face polynomials of the stellahedra), by f_n(x) = A_n(1 + x;1); the Swiss-knife polynomials of A119879, by Sw_n(x) = A_n(-1;1 + x); and the row polynomials of the Worpitsky triangle (A130850), by w_n(x) = A(1 + x;0). Other specializations of A_n(x;y) give A090582 (the f-polynomials of the permutohedra, cf. also A019538) and A028246 (another version of the Worpitsky triangle). - Tom Copeland, Jan 24 2020
