COMMENTS
For n=1, the figure is a line segment with two vertices. For n=2, the figure is a triangle with three edges. For n=3, the figure is a tetrahedron with four triangular faces. The Schläfli symbol, {3,...,3}, of the regular n-dimensional simplex consists of n-1 threes. Each of its n+1 facets is a regular (n-1)-dimensional simplex. Two oriented colorings are the same if one is a rotation of the other; chiral pairs are counted as two.

FORMULA
A(n,k) = binomial(n+k,n+1) + binomial(k,n+1).
A(n,k) = Sum_{j=1..n+1} A325002(n,j) * binomial(k,j).
A(n,k) = A325000(n,k) + A325000(n,k-n) = 2*A325000(n,k) - A325001(n,k) = 2*A325000(n,k-n) + A325001(n,k).
G.f. for row n: (x + x^(n+1)) / (1-x)^(n+2).
Linear recurrence for row n: A(n,k) = Sum_{j=1..n+2} -binomial(j-n-3,j) * A(n,k-j).
G.f. for column k: (1 - 2*(1-x)^k + (1-x^2)^k) / (x*(1-x)^k) - 2*k.

For A(1,2) = 4, the two achiral colorings use just one of the two colors for both vertices; the chiral pair uses two colors. For A(2,2)=4, the triangle may have 0, 1, 2, or 3 edges of one color.
