FORMULA
T(n,k) = Sum_{j=0..floor(n/2)} (-k)^j * Stirling1(n,2*j).
T(n,k) = (-1)^n * ( (sqrt(k) * i)_n + (-sqrt(k) * i)_n )/2, where (x)_n is the Pochhammer symbol and i is the imaginary unit.
T(0,k) = 1, T(1,k) = 0; T(n,k) = -(2*n-3) * T(n-1,k) - (n^2-4*n+4+k) * T(n-2,k).
EXAMPLE
Square array begins:
1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, ...
0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, ...
0, -1, -2, -3, -4, -5, ...
0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, ...
0, -10, -18, -24, -28, -30, ...
0, 40, 60, 60, 40, 0, ...
PROG
(PARI) T(n, k) = sum(j=0, n\2, (-k)^j*stirling(n, 2*j, 1));
(PARI) T(n, k) = (-1)^n*round((prod(j=0, n-1, sqrt(k)*I+j)+prod(j=0, n-1, -sqrt(k)*I+j)))/2;
