Essentially equals a signed version of A034807, the triangle of Lucas polynomials. The initial n coefficients of 1/C(x)^n consist of row n followed by floor((n-1)/2) zeros for n > 0.
For the following formula for 1/C(x)^n see the W. Lang reference, proposition 1 on p. 411:
1/C(x)^n = (sqrt(x))^n*(S(n,1/sqrt(x)) - sqrt(x)*S(n-1,1/sqrt(x))*C(x)), n >= 0, with the Chebyshev polynomials S(n,x) with coefficients given in A049310. See also the coefficient array A115139 for P(n,x) = (sqrt(x)^(n-1))*S(n-1, 1/sqrt(x)). - Wolfdieter Lang, Sep 14 2013
It seems that the n-th row lists the coefficients of the HOMFLYPT (HOMFLY) polynomial reduced to one variable for link family n, see Jablan's slide 38. - Andrey Zabolotskiy, Jan 16 2018
For n >= 1 row n gives the coefficients of the Girard-Waring formula for the sum of x1^n + x2^n in terms of the elementary symmetric functions e_1(x1,x2) = x1 + x2 and e_2(x1,x2) = x1*x2. This is an array using the partitions of n, in the reverse Abramowitz-Stegun order, with all partitions with parts larger than 2 eliminated. E.g., n = 4: x1^4 + x2^4 = 1*e1^4 - 4*e1^3*e2 + 2*e1*e2^2. See also A115131, row n = 4, with the mentioned partitions omitted. - Wolfdieter Lang, May 03 2019
Row n lists the coefficients of the n-th Faber polynomial for the replicable function given in A154272 with offset -1. - Ben Toomey, May 12 2020

FORMULA
|
T(n,k) = (-1)^k*( C(n-k,k) + C(n-k-1,k-1) ) for n >= 0, 0 <= k <= floor(n/2).
T(0,0) = 1; T(n,k) = (-1)^k*n*binomial(n-k,k)/(n-k), k = 0..floor(n/2). - Wolfdieter Lang, May 03 2019
