COMMENTS
A 3-uniform hypergraph is a set of 3-subsets of the nodes with isomorphism determined by permutations of the node set. The numbers are calculated using Polya enumeration from the cycle index of the symmetric group Sym(n) in its action on 3-subsets of an n-set, which can easily be computed by MAGMA or GAP. A000665 is the sum of each row of the triangle.
