Apparently, a raising operator for bivariate polynomials P(n,u,z) having these coefficients is R = (u+z)^2 * z * d/dz with P(0,u,z) = z. E.g., R P(1,u,z) = R^2 P(0,u,z) = R^2 z = u^4 z + 6 u^3 z^2 + 12 u^2 z^3 + 10 u z^4 + 3 z^5 = P(2,u,z). See the Kazarian link. -

Reverse polynomials seem to be generated by 1 + exp[t*(x+1+z)^2*(1+z)d/dz]z evaluated at z = 0. -

T(n,k) = k*T(n,k) + 2*(k - 1)*T(n,k-1) + (k - 2)*T(n,k-2).
n-th diagonal of
A008277: Stirling2(N + n - 1,N) = Sum_{k = 1..2*n - 1} T(n,k)*binomial(N - n,k - 1) for N = 1,2,3,....
Row polynomials R(n,z) = Sum_{k >= 1} k^(n+k-1)*( z/(1 + z)*exp(-z/(1 + z)) )^k/k!, n = 1,2,..., follows from the formula given in
A008277 for the o.g.f.'s of the diagonals of the Stirling numbers of the second kind.
Consequently, R(n+1,z) = (1 + z)^2*z*d/dz(R(n,z)) for n >= 1 as conjectured above by Copeland.
R(n,z) = (1 + z)^n*P(n,z) where P(n,z) are the row polynomials of
A134991.
R(n,z) = (1 + z)^(2*n+1)*B(n,z/(1 + z)), where B(n,z) are the row polynomials of the triangle of second-order Eulerian numbers
A008517 (see Barbero et al., Section 6, equation 27). (End)
Based on the comment of Bala the row polynomials have the explicit form R(n, z) = (1+z)^(n+1)*Sum_{k=0..n}(z^k*Sum_{m=0..k}((-1)^(m+k)*binomial(n+k, n+m)* Stirling2(n+m,m))). -

E.g.f. G(x,y) satisfies G(x,y) = y*(exp(x)*exp(G(x,y)) - G(x,y) - 1). -
