COMMENTS
Triangle T(n,k), 0 <= k <= n, read by rows, given by [1, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, ...] DELTA [1, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, ...] where DELTA is the operator defined in A084938. - Philippe Deléham, Aug 10 2005
T(n,k) is the number of sequences of nonempty sequences of nonempty bit strings with n bits and exactly k 1's over all strings in the sequence of sequences. In other words, these are sequences of the structures counted by A055372. - Geoffrey Critzer, Apr 06 2013
FORMULA
T(n,k) = 3^(n-1)*C(n, k) for n > 0.
O.g.f.: 1/(2 - A(x,y)) where A(x,y) is the o.g.f. for A055372. - Geoffrey Critzer, Apr 06 2013
