COMMENTS
The row polynomials p(n,x) := sum(a(n,m)*x^m,m=0..n) are negative scaled Chebyshev U-polynomials: p(n,x)= -U(n-1,sqrt(x)/2)*(sqrt(x))^(n+1), n >= 1. p(0,x)=0. p(n-1,1/x) appears in the n-th power of the g.f. of Catalan's numbers A000108, c(x): (c(x))^n = p(n-1,1/x)*1 -p(n,1/x)*x*c(x). Cf. Lang reference eqs.(1) and (2).

FORMULA
a(n, m)=0 if n<m; a(0, 0)=0; a(n, m)= ((-1)^(n-m+1))*binomial(m-1, n-m) if n >= 1 and n >= m >=floor(n/2)+1; else 0.
