COMMENTS

Rows are of length 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, ...

This triangle is generated from A118800 by shifting down columns to allow for (1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3,...) terms in each row. - Gary W. Adamson, Dec 16 2007

Unsigned = A034839 * A007318 [From Gary W. Adamson, Nov 28 2008]

Triangle, with zeros omitted, given by (1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, ...) DELTA (0, -1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, ...) where DELTA is the operator defined in A084938. - Philippe Deléham, Dec 16 2011

FORMULA

cos(n*x) = 2*cos((n-1)*x)*cos(x) - cos((n-2)*x) (from CRC's Multiple-angle relations). [From Rick L. Shepherd, Jul 06 2010]

G.f.: (1-x)/(1-2x+y*x^2). - Philippe Deléham, Dec 16 2011

Sum_{k, 0<=k<=n} T(n,k)*x^k = A011782(n), A000012(n), A146559(n), A087455(n), A138230(n), A006495(n), A138229(n) for x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 resspectively. - Philippe Deléham, Dec 16 2011

EXAMPLE

Letting c = cos x, we have: cos 0x = 1, cos 1x = 1c; cos 2x = 2c^2-1; cos 3x = 4c^3-3c, cos 4x = 8c^4-8c^2+1, etc.

1; 1; 2,-1; 4,-3; 8,-8,1; 16,-20,5; 32,-48,18,-1; ...

T4 = 8x^4 - 8x^2 + 1 = 8, -8, +1 = 2^(3) - (4)(2) + [2^(-1)](4)/2.
