COMMENTS
An n-dimensional simplex has n+1 vertices and (n+1)*n/2 edges. For n=1, the figure is a line segment with one edge. For n-2, the figure is a triangle with three edges. For n=3, the figure is a tetrahedron with six edges. The Schläfli symbol, {3,...,3}, of the regular n-dimensional simplex consists of n-1 threes. Two oriented colorings are the same if one is a rotation of the other; chiral pairs are counted as two.
A(n,k) is also the number of oriented colorings of (n-2)-dimensional regular simplices in an n-dimensional simplex using up to k colors. Thus, A(2,k) is also the number of oriented colorings of the vertices (0-dimensional simplices) of an equilateral triangle.

FORMULA
The algorithm used in the Mathematica program below assigns each permutation of the vertices to a partition of n+1. It then determines the number of permutations for each partition and the cycle index for each partition.
A(n,k) = Sum_{j=1..(n+1)*n/2} A327087(n,j) * binomial(k,j).
A(n,k) = A327084(n,k) + A327085(n,k) = 2*A327084(n,k) - A327086(n,k) = 2*A327085(n,k) + A327086(n,k).
EXAMPLE
Array begins with A(1,1):
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ...
1 4 11 24 45 76 119 176 249 340 ...
1 12 87 416 1475 4236 10437 22912 45981 85900 ...

...
For A(2,3) = 11, the nine achiral colorings are AAA, AAB, AAC, ABB, ACC, BBB, BBC, BCC, and CCC. The chiral pair is ABC-ACB.
