If U_n(x), T_n(x) are Chebyshev's polynomials then U_n(x)=P_{n,0}(x), T_n(x)=P_{n,1}(x).
Let n>=3 and k be of the same parity. Consider a set X consisting of (n+k)/2-3 blocks of the size 2 and an additional block of the size 3, then (-1)^((n-k)/2)a(n,k) is the number of n-3-subsets of X intersecting each block of the size 2.

FORMULA
|
If n>=3 and k are of the same parity then a(n,k)= (-1)^((n-k)/2)*sum((-1)^i*binomial((n+k)/2-3, i)*binomial(n+k-3-2*i, n-3), i=0..(n+k)/2-3) and a(n,k)=0 if n and k are of different parity.

EXAMPLE
|
Rows are (1),(-3,2),(3,-7,4),(-1,9,-16,8),(-5,25,-36,16),...
since P_{3,3}=x^3, P_{4,3}=-3x^2+2x^4, P_{5,3}=3x-7x^3+4x^5,...

|
MAPLE
|
if modp(n-k, 2)=0 then a[n, k]:=(-1)^((n-k)/2)*sum((-1)^i*binomial((n+k)/2-3, i)*binomial(n+k-3-2*i, n-3), i=0..(n+k)/2-3); end if;
