COMMENTS

Sequence of coefficients inspired by the Belyi transform: x'->(m + n)^(n + m)*x^m*(1 - x)^n/(m^m*n^n).

Row sums are: 1, 2, 6, 56, 47170, 20000006252, 104857600875787780761812064, ...

These symmetrical coefficients remind one of Calabi-Yau base Hodge Diamond matrices. These numbers get large very fast.
