This infinite matrix is the square of the Pascal matrix (A007318) whose rows are [ 1,0,... ], [ 1,1,0,... ], [ 1,2,1,0,... ], ...
As an upper right triangle, table rows give number of points, edges, faces, cubes,
4D hypercubes etc. in hypercubes of increasing dimension by column. - Henry Bottomley, Apr 14 2000. More precisely, the (i,j)-th entry is the number of j-dimensional subspaces of an i-dimensional hypercube (see the Coxeter reference). - Christof Weber, May 08 2009
Number of different partial sums of 1+[1,1,2]+[2,2,3]+[3,3,4]+[4,4,5]+... with entries that are zero removed. - Jon Perry, Jan 01 2004
Row sums are powers of 3 (A000244), antidiagonal sums are Pell numbers (A000129). - Gerald McGarvey, May 17 2005
Riordan array (1/(1-2x), x/(1-2x)). - Paul Barry, Jul 28 2005
T(n,k) is the number of elements of the Coxeter group B_n with descent set contained in {s_k}, 0<=k<=n-1. For T(n,n), we interpret this as the number of elements of B_n with empty descent set (since s_n does not exist). - Elizabeth Morris (epmorris(AT)math.washington.edu), Mar 01 2006
Let S be a binary relation on the power set P(A) of a set A having n = |A| elements such that for every element x, y of P(A), xSy if x is a subset of y. Then T(n,k) = the number of elements (x,y) of S for which y has exactly k more elements than x. - Ross La Haye, Oct 12 2007
T(n,k) is number of paths in the first quadrant going from (0,0) to (n,k) using only steps B=(1,0) colored blue, R=(1,0) colored red and U=(1,1). Example: T(3,2)=6 because we have BUU, RUU, UBU, URU, UUB and UUR. - Emeric Deutsch, Nov 04 2007
T(n,k) is the number of lattice paths from (0,0) to (n,k) using steps (0,1), and two kinds of step (1,0). - Joerg Arndt, Jul 01 2011
T(i,j) is the number of i-permutations of {1,2,3} containing j 1's. Example: T(2,1)=4 because we have 12, 13, 21 and 31; T(3,2)=6 because we have 112, 113, 121, 131, 211 and 311. - Zerinvary Lajos, Dec 21 2007
Triangle of coefficients in expansion of (2+x)^n. - N-E. Fahssi, Apr 13 2008
Sum of diagonals are Jacobsthal-numbers: A001045. - Mark Dols, Aug 31 2009

Eigensequence of the triangle = A004211: (1, 3, 11, 49, 257, 1539, ...). - Gary W. Adamson, Feb 07 2010
f-vectors ("face"-vectors) for n-dimensional cubes [see e.g., Hoare]. (This is a restatement of Bottomley's above.) - Tom Copeland, Oct 19 2012
With P = Pascal matrix, the sequence of matrices I, A007318, A038207, A027465, A038231, A038243, A038255, A027466 ... = P^0, P^1, P^2, ... are related by Copeland's formula below to the evolution at integral time steps n= 0, 1, 2, ... of an exponential distribution exp(-x*z) governed by the Fokker-Planck equation as given in the Dattoli et al. ref. below. - Tom Copeland, Oct 26 2012
The matrix elements of the inverse are T^(-1)(n,k) = (-1)^(n+k)*T(n,k). - R. J. Mathar, Mar 12 2013
Unsigned diagonals of A133156 are rows of this array. - Tom Copeland, Oct 11 2014
Omitting the first row, this is the production matrix for A039683, where an equivalent differential operator can be found. - Tom Copeland, Oct 11 2016
T(n,k) is the number of functions f:[n]->[3] with exactly k elements mapped to 3. Note that there are C(n,k) ways to choose the k elements mapped to 3, and there are 2^(n-k) ways to map the other (n-k) elements to {1,2}. Hence, by summing T(n,k) as k runs from 0 to n, we obtain 3^n = Sum_{k=0..n} T(n,k). - Dennis P. Walsh, Sep 26 2017
Since this array is the square of the Pascal lower triangular matrix, the row polynomials of this array are obtained as the umbral composition of the row polynomials P_n(x) of the Pascal matrix with themselves. E.g., P_3(P.(x)) = 1 P_3(x) + 3 P_2(x) + 3 P_1(x) + 1 = (x^3 + 3 x^2 + 3 x + 1) + 3 (x^2 + 2 x + 1) + 3 (x + 1) + 1 = x^3 + 6 x^2 + 12 x + 8. - Tom Copeland, Nov 12 2018
T(n,k) is the number of 2-compositions of n+1 with some zeros allowed that have k zeros; see the Hopkins & Ouvry reference. - Brian Hopkins, Aug 16 2020
Also the convolution triangle of A000079. - Peter Luschny, Oct 09 2022

FORMULA
T(n, k) = Sum_{i=0..n} binomial(n,i)*binomial(i,k).
T(n, k) = (-1)^k*A065109(n,k).
G.f.: 1/(1-2*z-t*z). - Emeric Deutsch, Nov 04 2007
Rows of the triangle are generated by taking successive iterates of (A135387)^n * [1, 0, 0, 0, ...]. - Gary W. Adamson, Dec 09 2007
From the formalism of A133314, the e.g.f. for the row polynomials of A038207 is exp(x*t)*exp(2x). The e.g.f. for the row polynomials of the inverse matrix is exp(x*t)*exp(-2x). p iterates of the matrix give the matrix with e.g.f. exp(x*t)*exp(p*2x). The results generalize for 2 replaced by any number. - Tom Copeland, Aug 18 2008
Sum_{k=0..n} T(n,k)*x^k = (2+x)^n. - Philippe Deléham, Dec 15 2009
n-th row is obtained by taking pairwise sums of triangle A112857 terms starting from the right. - Gary W. Adamson, Feb 06 2012
T(n,n) = 1 and T(n,k) = T(n-1,k-1) + 2*T(n-1,k) for k<n. - Jon Perry, Oct 11 2012
The e.g.f. for the n-th row is given by umbral composition of the normalized Laguerre polynomials A021009 as p(n,x) = L(n, -L(.,-x))/n! = 2^n L(n, -x/2)/n!. E.g., L(2,x) = 2 -4*x +x^2, so p(2,x)= (1/2)*L(2, -L(.,-x)) = (1/2)*(2*L(0,-x) + 4*L(1,-x) + L(2,-x)) = (1/2)*(2 + 4*(1+x) + (2+4*x+x^2)) = 4 + 4*x + x^2/2. - Tom Copeland, Oct 20 2012
From Tom Copeland, Oct 26 2012: (Start)
From the formalism of A132440 and A218272:
Let P and P^T be the Pascal matrix and its transpose and H= P^2= A038207.
Then with D the derivative operator,
exp(x*z/(1-2*z))/(1-2*z)= exp(2*z D_z z) e^(x*z)= exp(2*D_x (x D_x)) e^(z*x)
= (1 z z^2 z^3 ...) H (1 x x^2/2! x^3/3! ...)^T
= (1 x x^2/2! x^3/3! ...) H^T (1 z z^2 z^3 ...)^T
= Sum_{n>=0} z^n * 2^n Lag_n(-x/2)= exp[z*EF(.,x)], an o.g.f. for the f-vectors (rows) of A038207 where EF(n,x) is an e.g.f. for the n-th f-vector. (Lag_n(x) are the un-normalized Laguerre polynomials.)
Conversely,
exp(z*(2+x))= exp(2D_x) exp(x*z)= exp(2x) exp(x*z)
= (1 x x^2 x^3 ...) H^T (1 z z^2/2! z^3/3! ...)^T
= (1 z z^2/2! z^3/3! ...) H (1 x x^2 x^3 ...)^T
= exp(z*OF(.,x)), an e.g.f for the f-vectors of A038207 where
OF(n,x)= (2+x)^n is an o.g.f. for the n-th f-vector.
(End)
G.f.: R(0)/2, where R(k) = 1 + 1/(1 - (2*k+1+ (1+y))*x/((2*k+2+ (1+y))*x + 1/R(k+1) )); (continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Nov 09 2013
A038207 = exp[M*B(.,2)] where M = A238385-I and (B(.,x))^n = B(n,x) are the Bell polynomials (cf. A008277). B(n,2) = A001861(n). - Tom Copeland, Apr 17 2014
T = (A007318)^2 = A112857*|A167374| = |A118801|*|A167374| = |A118801*A167374| = |P*A167374*P^(-1)*A167374| = |P*NpdP*A167374|. Cf. A118801. - Tom Copeland, Nov 17 2016
E.g.f. for the n-th subdiagonal, n = 0,1,2,..., equals exp(x)*P(n,x), where P(n,x) is the polynomial 2^n*Sum_{k = 0..n} binomial(n,k)*x^k/k!. For example, the e.g.f. for the third subdiagonal is exp(x)*(8 + 24*x + 12*x^2 + 4*x^3/3) = 8 + 32*x + 80*x^2/2! + 160*x^3/3! + .... - Peter Bala, Mar 05 2017
T(3*k+2,k) = T(3*k+2,k+1), T(2*k+1,k) = 2*T(2*k+1,k+1). - Yuchun Ji, May 26 2020
From Robert A. Russell, Aug 05 2020: (Start)
G.f. for column k: x^k / (1-2*x)^(k+1).
E.g.f. for column k: exp(2*x) * x^k / k!. (End)
Also the array A(n, k) read by descending antidiagonals, where A(n, k) = (-1)^n*Sum_{j= 0..n+k} binomial(n + k, j)*hypergeom([-n, j+1], [1], 1). - Peter Luschny, Nov 09 2021
