COMMENTS

Determinants of upper left n X n matrices results in A003046: {1,1,2,10,140,5880,776160,332972640,476150875200,...}, which is the product of the first n Catalan numbers (A000108).

May also be regarded as a Pascal-Catalan triangle. As a triangle, row sums are A086615, inverse has row sums 0^n.

FORMULA

As a triangle, T(n, k)=sum{j=0..n-k, C(n-k, j)C(k, j)C(j)}; T(n, k)=sum{j=0..n, C(n-k, n-j)C(k, j-k)C(j-k)}; T(n, k)=if(k<=n, sum{j=0..n, C(k, j)C(n-k, n-j)C(k-j)}, 0).

As a square array, T(n, k)=sum{j=0..n, C(n, j)C(k, j)C(j)}; As a square array, T(n, k)=sum{j=0..n+k, C(n, n+k-j)C(k, j-k)C(j-k)}; column k has g.f. sum{j=0..k, C(k, j)C(j)(x/(1-x))^j}x^k/(1-x).
