COMMENTS

The k-th row contains 2k+1 numbers.

Columns in the right half consist of convolutions of the Lucas numbers with the natural numbers.

T(n,k) = number of strings s(0),...,s(n) such that s(n)=n-k. s(0) in {0,1,2}, s(1)=1 if s(0) in {1,2}, s(1) in {0,1,2} if s(0)=0 and for 1<=i<=n, s(i)=s(i-1)+d, with d in {0,2} if s(i)=2i, in {0,1,2} if s(i)=2i-1, in {0,1} if 0<=s(i)<=2i-2.

FORMULA

T(n, k) = Lucas(k+1) for k<=n, otherwise the (2n-k)th coefficient of the power series for (1+2x)/{(1-x-x^2)(1-x)^(k-n)}.

Recurrence: T(n, 0)=T(n, 2n)=1 for n >= 0; T(n, 1)=3 for n >= 1; and for n >= 2, T(n, k)=T(n-1, k-2)+T(n-1, k-1) for k=2, 3, ..., 2n-1.

PROG

(PARI) T(r, n)=if(r<0||n>2*r, return(0)); if(n==0||n==2*r, return(1)); if(n==1, 3, T(r-1, n-1)+T(r-1, n-2)) (from R. Stephan)
