COMMENTS

Row sums are generalized Catalan numbers A064310. Diagonal sums are 0^n+(-1)^n*A030238(n-2). Inverse is A026729, as number triangle. Columns have g.f. (xc(-x))^k=((sqrt(1+4x)-1)/2)^k.

Triangle T(n,k), 0<=k<=n, read by rows, given by [0, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, . . . ] DELTA [1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, . . . ] where DELTA is the operator defined in A084938. - Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), May 31 2005

FORMULA

T(n, k) = (-1)^(n+k)*binomial(2n-k-1, n-k)*k/n for 0<=k<=n with n>0; T(0, 0) = 1; T(0, k) = 0 if k>0 . - Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), May 31 2005
