COMMENTS
A branching node of a tree is a vertex of degree at least 3.
Sum of entries in row n is A000055(n) (number of trees with n vertices).
Row n has floor(n/2) entries.
T(n,1) = A004250(n-1).

FORMULA
The author knows of no formula for T(n,k). The entries have been obtained in the following manner, explained for row n = 7. In A235111 we find that the 11 (= A000055(7)) trees with 7 vertices have M-indices 25, 27, 30, 35, 36, 40, 42, 48, 49, 56, and 64 (the M-index of a tree t is the smallest of the Matula numbers of the rooted trees isomorphic, as a tree, to t). Making use of the formula in A196049, from these Matula numbers one obtains that these trees have 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 2, 2, and 1 branching vertices, respectively; the frequencies of 0, 1, and 2 are 1, 7, and 3, respectively. See the Maple program.
EXAMPLE
Row n=4 is T(4,0)=1,T(4,1)=1; indeed, the path P[4] has no branching vertex and the star S[4] has 1 branching vertex.
