%N A triangular decomposition of the double factorial numbers A001147.
%C Row sums are A001147. Reversal of A185410. Contains A156919 as submatrix.
%C Row n counts perfect matchings of [2n] by number of matches in which the smaller entry is odd. For example, T(2,1)=2 counts 13/24, 14/23, in each of which only the first matching pair has an odd smaller entry. Outline proof. Consider the map on perfect matchings of [2n] given by "delete the entries n and n-1 and, if they were not originally matched to each other, match up their now-unmatched partners". Consideration of this map and its effect on the statistic "number of matches in which the smaller entry is odd" yields the Mathematica recurrence below. - _David Callan_, Dec 13 2011
%C Triangle T(n,k), 0 <= k <= n, given by (0, 2, 0, 4, 0, 6, 0, 8, 0, 10, 0, ...) DELTA (1, 0, 3, 0, 5, 0, 7, 0, 9, 11, 0, ...) where DELTA is the operator defined in A084938. - _Philippe Deléham_, Feb 12 2013
%C T(n,k), 0 <= k <= n, is the number of signed permutations of [n] that are products of balanced cycles (i.e., cuspidal elements of the type B Coxeter group) and have excedance number of type B equal to k. - _Jose Bastidas_, Jul 05 2023
