%N Triangle T(n,k) = M(2n,k,-1), with 0 <= k <= n, n >= 0, and array M is defined in A050144.

%C Sometimes called Catalan's triangle, although this term is usually reserved for several other triangles!

%C T is a mirror image of the array in A039598.

%C Given (1) = row 0, then the sum of terms with alternating signs in row r of A050166 = (-1)^r * A000108(n); where A000108 = 1, 1, 2, 5, 14, 42, ...the Catalan numbers. - _Herb Conn_

%C The diagonals of this triangle are self-convolutions of the main diagonal A000108(n+1): 1, 2, 5, 14, 42, 132, 429, ... - _Philippe Deléham_, May 25 2005

%C The multiplicities of the eigenvalues of the middle cubes are related to this triangle. The middle cube in Q_3 has eigenvalues -2, -1, 1, 2 with multiplicities 1, 2, 2, 1. The middle cube in Q_5 has eigenvalues -3, -2, -1, 1, 2, 3 with multiplicities 1, 4, 5, 5, 4, 1. The middle cube in Q_7 has eigenvalues -4, -3, -2, -1, 1, 2, 3, 4 with multiplicities 1, 6, 14, 14, 14, 14, 6, 1, etc. - _Ke Qiu_, Apr 05 2019

%F From _Henry Bottomley_, Sep 24 2001: (Start)

%F T(n, k) = C(2n+1, k)*2*(n-k+1)/(2n-k+2) = A039598(n, n-k)

%F T(n, k) = T(n-1, k) + 2*T(n-1, k-1) + T(n-1, k-2), with T(0, 0) = 1 and T(n, k) = 0 if n < 0 or n < k. (End)

%F Sum_{0<=k<=n} T(n,k)*x^k = A000012(n), A001700(n), A194723(n+1), A194724(n+1), A194725(n+1), A194726(n+1), A195727(n+1), A194728(n+1), A194729(n+1), A194730(n+1) for x = 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 respectively. - _Philippe Deléham_, Nov 03 2011
