COMMENTS

Can read as table: a(n,m)= 1 if n=m >= 0, else 0 (unit matrix).

a(n) = number of 1's between successive 0's (see also A005614, A003589 and A007538) - Eric Angelini (eric.angelini(AT)kntv.be), Jul 06 2005

Triangle T(n,k), 0<=k<=n, read by rows, given by A000004 DELTA A000007 where DELTA is the operator defined in A084938 . [From Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Jan 03 2009]

FORMULA

If (floor(sqrt(2*n))-(2*n/(floor(sqrt(2*n)))) = -1, 1, 0). - Gerald Hillier, Sep 11 2005

a(n)=1 - A023532(n); a(n)=1 - mod(floor(((10^(n+2) - 10)/9)10^(n+1 - binomial(floor((1+sqrt(9+8n))/2), 2) - (1+floor(log((10^(n+2) - 10)/9, 10))))), 10) - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), May 25 2004

a(n)=floor((sqrt(9+8n)-1)/2)-floor((sqrt(1+8n)-1)/2). - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), May 25 2004

a(n)=round(sqrt(2n+3))-round(sqrt(2n+2)). - Hieronymus Fischer (Hieronymus.Fischer(AT)gmx.de), Aug 06 2007

a(n)=ceiling(2*sqrt(2n+3))-floor(2*sqrt(2n+2))-1. - Hieronymus Fischer (Hieronymus.Fischer(AT)gmx.de), Aug 06 2007

a(n)=Sum_{k=1..oo}{C((n+2^(2*k)-k^2/2-k/2-1)^(2*k),n+2^(2*k)-k^2/2-k/2+1) mod 2} - Paolo P. Lava (paoloplava(AT)gmail.com), Sep 07 2007

Contribution from Franklin T. Adams-Watters (FrankTAW(AT)Netscape.net), Jun 29 2009: (Start)

G.f. 1/2 x^{-1/8}theta_2(0,x^{1/2}), where theta_2 is a Jacobi theta function.

G.f. for triangle: Sum T(n,k) x^n y^k = 1/(1-x*y). Sum T(n,k) x^n y^k / n! = Sum T(n,k) x^n y^k / k! = exp(x*y). Sum T(n,k) x^n y^k / (n! k!) = I_0(2*sqrt(x*y)), where I is the modified Bessel function of the first kind. (End)

EXAMPLE

As a triangle:

......1

.....0.1

....0.0.1

...0.0.0.1

..0.0.0.0.1

.0.0.0.0.0.1
