With this definition, T(m,k) would be infinite for most small indices,
e.g., if  m & k  both have d digits, none in common, you have all  t =
sum(j=0,x, 10^(jd)), x >= 0.

In the spirit of Eric's idea, it would rather be :
T(m,k) = #{ t  s.t. concat(t*m, t*k) has no digit twice (or more)}
Then it's always finite since we must have concat(t*m, t*k) < 9876543210.
and  T(m,k) = T(k,m)  and  T(m,m) = 0  so one could/should impose k < m
and also T(m,k) = 0 whenever 10 | m and 10 | k, or m = k*10^z.

Yes, looking at other bases might be interesting. (Although probably dull
in very small bases, like 2.)
