%C Triangle of generalized binomial coefficients (n,k)_3; cf. A342889. This array is the main subject of the long article by Felsner et al. (2011). - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Apr 03 2021

%C This triangle is mentioned by Hoggatt (1977). - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Mar 27 2021

%C Determinants of 3 X 3 subarrays of Pascal's triangle A007318 (a matrix entry being set to 0 when not present). - _Gerald McGarvey_, Feb 24 2005

%C Also determinants of 3 X 3 arrays whose entries come from a single row: T(n,k) = det [C(n,k),C(n,k-1),C(n,k-2); C(n,k+1),C(n,k),C(n,k-1); C(n,k+2),C(n,k+1),C(n,k)]. - _Peter Bala_, May 10 2012

%C From _Gary W. Adamson_, Jul 10 2012: (Start)

%C The triangular view of this triangle is

%C 1;

%C 1, 1;

%C 1, 4, 1;

%C 1, 10, 10, 1;

%C 1, 20, 50, 20, 1;

%C The n-th row of this triangle is generated by applying the ConvOffs transform to the first n terms of 1, 4, 10, 20, ... (A000292 without leading zero). See A214281 for a procedural definition of the transformation and search "ConvOffs" for more examples. (End)

%C Define polynomials p(n, x) = hypergeom([-1 - n, -n, 1 - n], [2, 3], -x). If the triangle is extended by the diagonal 1, 0, 0,... on the right side the resulting (0, 0)-based triangle is T*(n, k) = [x^k] p(n, x). The polynomials evaluated at x = 1 gives the number of Baxter permutations of length n (see the formula given by _Richard L. Ollerton_ in A001181). - _Peter Luschny_, Dec 28 2022
