G.f. for row polynomials S(n,x) (signed triangle): 1/(1-x*z+z^2). Unsigned triangle |a(n,m)| has Fibonacci polynomials F(n+1,x) as row polynomials with G.f. 1/(1-x*z-z^2). |a(n,m)| triangle has rows of Pascal's triangle A007318 in the even numbered diagonals (odd numbered ones have only 0's).
Row sums (unsigned triangle) A000045(n+1) (Fibonacci). Row sums (signed triangle) S(n,1) sequence = periodic(1,1,0,-1,-1,0) = A010892.
Alternating row sums A049347(n) = S(n,-1) = periodic(1,-1,0). - From Wolfdieter Lang, Nov 04 2011
S(n,x) is the characteristic polynomial of the adjacency matrix of the n-path. - Michael Somos, Jun 24 2002
|T(n,k)|=number of compositions of n+1 into k+1 odd parts. Example: |T(7,3)|=10 because we have (1,1,3,3),(1,3,1,3),(1,3,3,1),(3,1,1,3),(3,1,3,1),(3,3,1,1), (1,1,1,5),(1,1,5,1),(1,5,1,1) and (5,1,1,1). - Emeric Deutsch, Apr 09 2005
S(n,x)= R(n,x) + S(n-2,x), n>=2, S(-1,x)=0, S(0,x)=1, R(n,x):=2*T(n,x/2) = sum(A127672(n,m)*x^m,m=0..n) (monic integer Chebyshev T-Polynomials). This is the rewritten so-called trace of the transfer matrix formula for the T-polynomials. Wolfdieter Lang, Dec 02 2010.
In a regular N-gon, inscribed in a unit circle, the side length is d(N,1)=2*sin(Pi/N). The length ratio R(N,k):=d(N,k)/d(N,1) for the (k-1)-th diagonal, with k from {2,3,...,floor(N/2)}, N>=4, equals S(k-1,x)= sin(k*Pi/N)/sin(Pi/N) with x=rho(N):=R(N,2)= 2*cos(Pi/N). Example: N=7 (heptagon),rho=R(7,2), sigma:=R(N,3)= S(2,rho)= rho^2-1. Motivated by the quoted paper by P. Steinbach. Wolfdieter Lang, Dec 02 2010.
From Wolfdieter Lang, Jul 12 2011: (Start)
In q- or basic analysis q-numbers are [n]_q :=S(n-1,q+1/q) = (q^n-(1/q)^n})/(q-1/q), with the row polynomials S(n,x), n>=0.
The zeros of the row polynomials S(n-1,x) are (from those of Chebyshev U-polynomials):
x^(n-1)_k = +/- t(k,rho(n)), k=1,...,ceiling((n-1)/2), n>=2, with t(n,x) the row polynomials of A127672 and rho(n):= 2*cos(Pi/n). The simple vanishing zero for even n appears here as +0 and -0.
Factorization of the row polynomials S(n-1,x), x>=1, in terms of the minimal polynomials of cos(2 pi/2), called Psi(n,x), with coefficients given by A181875/A181876:
S(n-1,x) = (2^(n-1))*product(Psi(d,x/2), 2 < d | 2n), n>=1.
(From the rewritten eq. (3) of the Watkins and Zeitlin reference, given under A181872.)
(End)
The discrimants of the S(n,x) polynomials are found in A127670. [Wolfdieter Lang, Aug 03 2011]
From Wolfdieter Lang, Nov 04 2011 (Start)
This is an example for a subclass of Riordan convolution arrays (lower triangular matrices) called Bell arrays. See the L. W. Shapiro et al. reference under A007318. If a Riordan array is named (G(z),F(z)) with F(z)=z*Fhat(z), the o.g.f. for the row polynomials is G(z)/(1-x*z*Fhat(z)), and it becomes a Bell array if G(z)=Fhat(z). For the present Bell type triangle G(z)=1/(1+z^2) (see the o.g.f. comment above). This leads to the o.g.f. for the column no. k, k>=0, x^k/(1+x^2)^(k+1) (see the formula section), the one for the row sums and for the alternating row sums (see comments above). The Riordan (Bell) A- and Z-sequences (defined in a W.Lang link under A006232, with references) have o.g.f.s 1-x*c(x^2) and -x*c(x^2), with the o.g.f. of the Catalan numbers A000108. Together they lead to a recurrence given in the formula section.

The Riordan A- and Z-sequences, given in a comment above, lead together to the recurrence:
T(n,k) = 0 if n<k, if k=0 then T(0,0)=1 and
T(n,0)=- sum(C(i)*T(n-1,2*i+1),i=0..floor((n-1)/2)), else T(n,k) = T(n-1,k-1) - sum(C(i)*T(n-1,k-1+2*i), i=1..floor((n-k)/2)), with the Catalan numbers C(n)=A000108(n).
