%N The (1,2)-Pascal triangle (or Lucas triangle) read by rows.

%C This is also called Vieta's array. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Nov 22 2017

%C Dropping the first term and changing the boundary conditions to T(n,1)=n, T(n,n-1)=2 (n>=2), T(n,n)=1 yields the number of nonterminal symbols (which generate strings of length k) in a certain context-free grammar in Chomsky normal form that generates all permutations of n symbols. Summation over k (1<=k<=n) results in A003945. For the number of productions of this grammar: see A090327. Example: 1; 2, 1; 3, 2, 1; 4, 5, 2, 1; 5, 9, 7, 2, 1; 6, 14, 16, 9, 2, 1; In addition to the example of A090327 we have T(3,3)=#{S}=1, T(3,2)=#{D,E}=2 and T(3,1)=#{A,B,C}=3. - _Peter R. J. Asveld_, Jan 29 2004

%C Much as the original Pascal triangle gives the Fibonacci numbers as sums of its diagonals, this triangle gives the Lucas numbers (A000032) as sums of its diagonals; see Posamentier & Lehmann (2007). - _Alonso del Arte_, Apr 09 2012

%C For a closed-form formula for generalized Pascal's triangle see A228576. - _Boris Putievskiy_, Sep 04 2013

%C It appears that for the infinite set of (1,N) Pascal's triangles, the binomial transform of the n-th row (n>0), followed by zeros, is equal to the n-th partial sum of (1, N, N, N, ...). Example: for the (1,2) Pascal's triangle, the binomial transform of the second row followed by zeros, i.e., of (1, 3, 2, 0, 0, 0, ...), is equal to the second partial sum of (1, 2, 2, 2, ...) = (1, 4, 9, 16, ...). - _Gary W. Adamson_, Aug 11 2015

%C Given any (1,N) Pascal triangle, let the binomial transform of the n-th row (n>1) followed by zeros be Q(x). It appears that the binomial transform of the (n-1)-th row prefaced by a zero is Q(n-1). Example: In the (1,2) Pascal triangle the binomial transform of row 3: (1, 4, 5, 2, 0, 0, 0, ...) is A000330 starting with 1: (1, 5, 14, 30, 55, 91, ...). The binomial transform of row 2 prefaced by a zero and followed by zeros, i.e., of (0, 1, 3, 2, 0, 0, 0, ...) is (0, 1, 5, 14, 30, 55, ...). - _Gary W. Adamson_, Sep 28 2015

%C It appears that in the array accompanying each (1,N) Pascal triangle (diagonals of the triangle), the binomial transform of (..., 1, N, 0, 0, 0, ...) preceded by (n-1) zeros generates the n-th row of the array (n>0). Then delete the zeros in the result. Example: in the (1,2) Pascal triangle, row 3 (1, 5, 14, 30, ...) is the binomial transform of (0, 0, 1, 2, 0, 0, 0, ...) with the resulting zeros deleted. - _Gary W. Adamson_, Oct 11 2015

%C Read as a square array (similar to the Example section Sq(m,j), but with Sq(0,0)=0 and Sq(m,j)=P(m+1,j) otherwise), P(n,k) are the multiplicities of the eigenvalues, lambda_n = n(n+k-1), of the Laplacians on the unit k-hypersphere, given by Teo (and Choi) as P(n,k) = (2n-k+1)(n+k-2)!/(n!(k-1)!). P(n,k) is also the numerator of a Dirichlet series for the Minakashisundarum-Pleijel zeta function for the sphere. Also P(n,k) is the dimension of the space of homogeneous, harmonic polynomials of degree k in n variables (Shubin, p. 169). For relations to Chebyshev polynomials and simple Lie algebras, see A034807. - _Tom Copeland_, Jan 10 2016

%C For a relation to a formulation for a universal Lie Weyl algebra for su(1,1), see page 16 of Durov et al. - _Tom Copeland_, Jan 15 2016

%F T(n,k) = T(n-1, k-1) + T(n-1, k) = C(n, k) + C(n-1, k-1) = C(n, k)*(n+k)/n = A007318(n, k) + A007318(n-1, k-1) = A061896(n+k, k) but with T(0, 0)=1 and T(1, 1)=2. Row sum is floor[3^2(n-1)] i.e., A003945. - _Henry Bottomley_, Apr 26 2002

%F G.f.: 1 + (1 + x*y) / (1 - x - x*y). - _Michael Somos_, Jul 15 2003

%F G.f. for n-th row: (x+2*y)*(x+y)^(n-1).

%F O.g.f. for row n: (1+x)/(1-x)^(n+1). The entries in row n are the nonzero entries in column n of A053120 divided by 2^(n-1). - _Peter Bala_, Aug 14 2008

%F T(2n,n) - T(2n,n+1)= Catalan(n)= A000108(n). - _Philippe Deléham_, Mar 19 2009

%F With T(0,0)=1 : Triangle T(n,k), read by rows, given by [1,0,0,0,0,0,...] DELTA [2,-1,0,0,0,0,...] where DELTA is the operator defined in A084938. - _Philippe Deléham_, Oct 10 2011

%F With T(0,0) = 1, as in the Example section below, this is known as Vieta's array. The LU factorization of the square array is given by Yang and Leida, equation 20. - _Peter Bala_, Feb 11 2012

%F For n > 0: T(n,k) = A097207(n-1,k), 0 <= k < n. - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Mar 12 2012

%F For n > 0: T(n,k) = A029600(n,k) - A007318(n,k), 0 <= k <= n. - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Apr 16 2012

%F Riordan array ((2-x)/(1-x), x/(1-x)). - _Philippe Deléham_, Mar 15 2013

%F exp(x) * e.g.f. for row n = e.g.f. for diagonal n. For example, for n = 3 we have exp(x)*(1 + 4*x + 5*x^2/2! + 2*x^3/3!) = 1 + 5*x + 14*x^2/2! + 30*x^3/3! + 55*x^4/4! + .... The same property holds more generally for Riordan arrays of the form ( f(x), x/(1 - x) ). - _Peter Bala_, Dec 22 2014

%F For n>=1: T(n,0) + T(n,1) + T(n,2) = A000217(n+1). T(n,n-2) = (n-1)^2. - _Bob Selcoe_, Mar 29 2016:
