COMMENTS

The boustrophedon transform {t} of a sequence {s} is given by t_n = Sum_{k, 0<=k<=n} T(n,k)*s(k). Triangle may be called the boustrophedon triangle.

The 'signed version' of the triangle is the exponential Riordan array [sech(x)+tanh(x), x]. [From Peter Luschny (peter(AT)luschny.de), Jan 24 2009]

FORMULA

Sum_{k>=0} T(n, k) = A000667(n).

Sum_{k>=0} T(2n, 2k) = A000795(n).

Sum_{k>=0} T(2n, 2k+1) = A009747(n).

Sum_{k>=0} T(2n+1, 2k) = A003719(n).

Sum_{k>=0} T(2n+1, 2k+1) = A002084(n).

Sum_{k>=0} T(n, 2k) = A062272(n).

Sum_{k>=0} T(n, 2k+1) = A062161(n).

Sum_{k>=0}(-1)^(k)*T(n, k) = A062162(n). [From Johannes W. Meijer, Apr 20 2011]

E.g.f.: exp(x*y)*(sec(x)+tan(x)). - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), May 20 2007

T(n,k) = 2^(n-k)C(n,k)|E(n-k,1/2)+E(n-k,1)|-[n=k] where C(n,k) is the binomial coefficient, E(m,x) are the Euler polynomials and [] the Iverson bracket. [From Peter Luschny (peter(AT)luschny.de), Jan 24 2009]

A109449(n, 0) = A000111(n), approx. round(2^(n + 2) * n! / Pi^(n + 1)).

A109449(n, n - 1) = n

A109449(n, n) = 1

For n > 0, k > 0:

A109449(n, k) = A109449(n - 1, k - 1) * n / k. (End)

Let p_n(x) = sum_{k=0..n} sum_{v=0..k} (-1)^v C(k,v)F(k)(x+v+1)^n, where

F(0)=1 and for k>0 F(k)=-1 + s_k 2^floor((k-1)/2), s_k is 0 if k mod 8 in

{2,6}, 1 if k mod 8 in {0,1,7} and otherwise -1. T(n,k) are the absolute

values of the coefficients of these polynomials. Another way to express

the polynomials p_n(x) is

p_n(x) = -x^n + sum_{k=0..n} C(n,k) Euler(k)((x+1)^(n-k)+x^(n-k)). (End)

An explicit formula for the n-th row polynomial is

x^n + I*sum {k = 1..n}((1+I)/2)^(k-1)* sum {j = 0..k} (-1)^j

*binomial(k,j)*(x+I*j)^n, where I = sqrt(-1).

This is the triangle of connection constants between the polynomial sequences {Z(n,x+1)} and {Z(n,x)}, where Z(n,x) denotes the zigzag polynomials described in A147309.

Denote the present array by M. The first column of the array

(I-x*M)^-1 is a sequence of rational functions in x whose numerator polynomials are the row polynomials of A145876 - the generalized Eulerian numbers associated with the zigzag numbers. [Peter Bala]
