A325012 Array read by descending antidiagonals: A(n,k) is the number of oriented colorings of the facets of a regular n-dimensional orthoplex using up to k colors. 13

COMMENTS
Also called cross polytope and hyperoctahedron. For n=1, the figure is a line segment with two vertices. For n=2 the figure is a square with four edges. For n=3 the figure is an octahedron with eight triangular faces. For n=4, the figure is a 16-cell with sixteen tetrahedral facets. The Schläfli symbol, {3,...,3,4}, of the regular n-dimensional orthoplex (n>1) consists of n-2 threes followed by a four. Each of its 2^n facets is an (n-1)-dimensional simplex. Two oriented colorings are the same if one is a rotation of the other; chiral pairs are counted as two.
Also the number of oriented colorings of the vertices of a regular n-dimensional orthotope (cube) using up to k colors.

FORMULA
The algorithm used in the Mathematica program below assigns each permutation of the axes to a partition of n. It then determines the number of permutations for each partition and the cycle index for each partition.
A(n,k) = A325013(n,k) + A325014(n,k) = 2*A325013(n,k) - A325015(n,k) = 2*A325014(n,k) + A325015(n,k).
A(n,k) = Sum_{j=1..2^n} A325016(n,j) * binomial(k,j).
EXAMPLE
Array begins with A(1,1):
1 4 9 16 25 36 49 64 ...
1 6 24 70 165 336 616 1044 ...
1 23 333 2916 16725 70911 241913 701968 ...
1 496 230076 22456756 795467350 14697611496 173107727191 1466088119056 ...
For A(1,2) = 4, the two achiral colorings use just one of the two colors for both vertices; the chiral pair uses one color for each vertex.
