COMMENTS

The entire matrix inverse of triangle A118185 is determined by column 0 (this sequence): [A118185^-1](n,k) = a(n-k)*(4^k)^(n-k) for n>=k>=0. Any g.f. of the form: Sum_{k>=0} b(k)*x^k may be expressed as: Sum_{n>=0} c(n)*x^n/(1-4^n*x) by applying the inverse transformation: c(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} a(n-k)*b(k)*(4^k)^(n-k).

FORMULA

G.f.: 1 = Sum_{n>=0} a(n)*x^n/(1-4^n*x). 0^n = Sum_{k=0..n} a(k)*(4^k)^(n-k) for n>=0.

G.f.: Sum_{n>=0} a(n)*x^n/2^(n^2) = 1/Sum_{n>=0} x^n/2^(n^2). [From Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Oct 14 2009]

EXAMPLE

Recurrence at n=4:

0 = a(0)*(4^0)^4 +a(1)*(4^1)^3 +a(2)*(4^2)^2 +a(3)*(4^3)^1 +a(4)*(4^4)^0

= 1*(4^0) - 1*(4^3) + 3*(4^4) - 33*(4^3) + 1407*(4^0).

The g.f. is illustrated by:

1 = 1/(1-x) - 1*x/(1-4*x) + 3*x^2/(1-16*x) - 33*x^3/(1-64*x) +

1407*x^4/(1-256*x) - 237057*x^5/(1-1024*x) + 158992383*x^6/(1-4096*x) +...

PROG

(PARI) {a(n)=local(T=matrix(n+1, n+1, r, c, if(r>=c, (4^(c-1))^(r-c)))); return((T^-1)[n+1, 1])}
