A327087 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of oriented colorings of the edges of a regular n-dimensional simplex using exactly k colors. Row n has (n+1)*n/2 columns. 8

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.
T(n,k) is also the number of oriented colorings of (n-2)-dimensional regular simplices in an n-dimensional simplex using exactly k colors. Thus, T(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.
A327083(n,k) = Sum_{j=1..(n+1)*n/2} T(n,j) * binomial(k,j).
T(n,k) = A327088(n,k) + A327089(n,k) = 2*A327088(n,k) - A327090(n,k) = 2*A327089(n,k) + A327090(n,k).
EXAMPLE
Triangle begins with T(1,1):
1
1 2 2
1 10 54 136 150 60
1 38 1080 14040 85500 274104 493920 504000 272160 60480
...
For T(2,1)=1, all edges of the triangle are the same color. For T(2,2)=2, the edges are AAB and ABB. For T(2,3)=2, the chiral pair is ABC-ACB.
