Row n has 1+floor(n/2) terms. Row sums are the odd-subscripted Fibonacci numbers (A001519). T(n,0)=1; T(n,1)=2^n-n-1=A000295(n) (the Eulerian numbers). T(2n+1,n)=3n+1=A016777(n). T(2n,n)=1.

FORMULA
|
T(n,k)=Sum(binomial(n,2*k+j)*binomial(k-1+j,k-1),j=0..n-2*k) (k<=n/2). G.f.=G=G(t,z)=(1-2z)/(1-3z+2z^2-tz^2)-1.

EXAMPLE
|
T(5,2)=7 because we have UDUDUUDUDD, UDUUDUDUDD, UDUUDUUDDD, UDUUUDDUDD, UUDDUUDUDD with valleys at levels 0 and 2, UDUUUDUDDD with valleys at levels 0 and 2 and UUDUUDUDDD with valleys at levels 1 and 2.

MAPLE

T:=(n, k)->sum(binomial(n, 2*k+j)*binomial(k-1+j, k-1), j=0..n-2*k): for n from 1 to 16 do seq(T(n, k), k=0..floor(n/2)) od; # yields sequence in triangular form
