COMMENTS

Apart from signs, identical to A053122.

Coefficient array for Morgan-Voyce polynomial B(n,x); see A085478 for references. DELEHAM Philippe (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Feb 16 2004

T(n,k)=number of compositions of n having k parts when there are q kinds of part q (q=1,2,...). Example: T(4,2)=10 because we have (1,3),(1,3'),(1,3"), (3,1),(3',1),(3",1),(2,2),(2,2'),(2',2) and (2',2'). - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Apr 09 2005

T(n, k) is also the number of idempotent order-preserving full transformations (of an n-chain) of height k (height(alpha) = |Im(alpha)|). [From A. Umar (aumarh(AT)squ.edu.om), Oct 02 2008]

FORMULA

G.f.: x*y/(1-(2+y)*x+x^2). To get row n, expand this in powers of x then expand the coefficient of x^n in increasing powers of y.

If indexing begins at 0 we have: T(n, k) = (n+k+1)!/((n-k)!*(2k+1))!. T(n, k) = Sum_{j>=0} T(n-1-j, k-1)*(j+1) with T(n, 0) = n+1, T(n, k) = 0 if n<k. T(n, k) = T(n-1, k-1) + T(n-1, k) + Sum_{j>=0} (-1)^j*T(n-1, k+j)*A000108(j) with T(n, k) = 0 if k<0, T(0, 0)=1 and T(0, k) = 0 for k>0. G.f. for the column k : Sum_{n>=0} T(n, k)*x^n = (x^k)/(1-x)^(2k+2). Row sums : Sum_{k>=0} T(n, k) = A001906(n+1). - DELEHAM Philippe (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Feb 16 2004

Diagonal sums are A000079(n)=sum{k=0..floor(n/2), binomial(n+k+1, n-k)}. - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Jun 21 2004

Riordan array (1/(1-x)^2, x/(1-x)^2). - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Oct 22 2006

T(0,0)= 1, T(n,k)=0 if k<0 or if k>n, T(n,k) = T(n-1,k-1)+2*T(n-1,k)-T(n-2,k). [From Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Jan 26 2010]
