COMMENTS

The rows sum to A006318 (Schroeder numbers), the left column is A000108 (Catalan numbers); the second to-left column is A001700, the alternating sum in each row but the first is 0.

T(n,k) is the number of Schroeder paths (i.e. consisting of steps U=(1,1), D=(1,-1),H=(2,0) and never going below the x-axis) from (0,0) to (2n,0), having k peaks. Example: T(2,1)=3 because we have UU*DD, U*DH and HU*D, the peaks being shown by *. E.g. T(n,k)=C(n,k)C(2n-k,n-1)/n for n>0. - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Dec 06 2003

A090181*A007318 as infinite lower triangular matrices . [From Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Oct 14 2008]

T(n,k) is also the number of rooted plane trees with maximal degree 3 and k vertices of degree 2 (a node may have at most 2 children, and there are exactly k nodes with 1 child). Equivalently, T(n,k) is the number of syntactically different expressions that can be formed that use a unary operation k times, a binary operation n-k times, and nothing else (sequence of operands is fixed).

FORMULA

If C_n(x) is the gf of row n of the Narayana numbers (A001263), C_n(x) = sum({n choose k-1}{n-1 choose k-1}/k x^k, {k,1,n}) and T_n(x) is the gf of row n of T(n,k), then T_n(x) = C_n(x+1), or T(n,k) = [x^n]sum(A001263(n,k) (x+1)^k, (k,1,n)) - Mitch Harris (maharri(AT)gmail.com), Jan 16 2007, Jan 31 2007

Contribution from Tom Copeland, Sept 21 2011: (Start)

With F(x,t) = (1-(2+t)*x-sqrt(1-2*(2+t)*x+(t*x)^2))/(2*x) an o.g.f. (nulling the n=0 term) in x for the A060693 polynomials in t,

  G(x,t) = x/(1+t+(2+t)*x+x^2) is the compositional inverse in x.

Consequently, with H(x,t) = 1/(dG(x,t)/dx)=(1+t+(2+t)*x+x^2)^2 /(1+t-x^2), the n-th A060693 polynomial in t is given by (1/n!)*[(H(x,t)*d/dx)^n] x evaluated at x=0, i.e., F(x,t) = exp[x*H(u,t)*d/du] u, evaluated at u = 0.

  Also, dF(x,t)/dx = H(F(x,t),t). (End)
