COMMENTS
Sum of entries in row n is A133365(n).
T(n,k)=0 if n-k is odd.
T(n,0)=A187254(n).
Sum_{k=0..n} k*T(n,k) = A187255(n).

FORMULA
T(n,k) = Sum_{j=0..(n-k)/2} (-1)^j*binomial(n-j,j)*binomial(n-2j,k)*(c((n-k)/2-2j)*c((n-k)/2-j+2) - c((n-k)/2 - j + 1)^2), where c(n)=A000108(n) are the Catalan numbers (see Corollary 2 in the Jin et al. reference).
EXAMPLE
T(4,2)=3 because we have AIAI, IAIA, AIIA, where in each structure the two A's are joined by an arc and the two I's are isolated vertices.
T(4,4)=1 because we have IIII.
T(4,0)=1 because we have ABAB, where the two A's are joined by an arc and the two B's are joined by an arc.

MAPLE
c := proc (n) options operator, arrow: binomial(2*n, n)/(n+1) end proc: T := proc (n, l) if `mod`(n-l, 2) = 0 then sum((-1)^b*binomial(n-b, b)*binomial(n-2*b, l)*(c((1/2)*n-(1/2)*l-b)*c((1/2)*n-(1/2)*l-b+2)-c((1/2)*n-(1/2)*l-b+1)^2), b = 0 .. (1/2)*n-(1/2)*l) else 0 end if end proc: for n from 0 to 12 do seq(T(n, k), k = 0 .. n) end do; # yields sequence in triangular form
