COMMENTS

Row sums are Fibonacii numbers A000045. - Roger Bagula (rlbagulatftn(AT)yahoo.com), Oct 07 2006

This is the second kind of Whitney numbers, which count elements, not to be confused with the first kind, which sum Mobius functions. - Thomas Zaslavsky (zaslav(AT)math.binghamton.edu), May 07 2008

FORMULA

Define polynomials by: if k is odd then p(k, x) = x*p(k - 1, x) + p(k - 2, x); if k is even then: p(k, x) = p(k - 1, x) + x^2*p(k - 2, x). Triangle gives array of coefficients. - Roger Bagula (rlbagulatftn(AT)yahoo.com), Oct 07 2006

EXAMPLE

Triangle begins:

{1},

{1, 1},

{1, 1, 1},

{1, 2, 1, 1},

{1, 2, 2, 2, 1},

{1, 3, 3, 3, 2, 1},

{1, 3, 4, 5, 4, 3, 1},

{1, 4, 6, 7, 7, 5, 3, 1},

{1, 4, 7, 10, 11, 10, 7, 4, 1},

{1, 5, 10, 14, 17, 16, 13, 8, 4, 1},

{1, 5, 11, 18, 24, 26, 24, 18, 11, 5, 1}

MATHEMATICA

p[0, x] = 1; p[1, x] = x + 1; p[k_, x_] := p[k, x] = If[Mod[k, 2] == 1, x*p[k - 1, x] + p[k - 2, x], p[k - 1, x] + x^2*p[k - 2, x]]; Table[Expand[p[n, x]], {n, 0, 10}] Table[Sum[CoefficientList[p[n, x], x][[m]], {m, 1, Length[CoefficientList[p[n, x], x]]}], {n, 0, 15}] w = Table[CoefficientList[p[n, x], x], {n, 0, 10}]; Flatten[w] - Roger Bagula (rlbagulatftn(AT)yahoo.com), Oct 07 2006
