A278132 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of bargraphs of semiperimeter n having height k (n>=2, 1<=k<=n-1). 1

COMMENTS
Number of entries in row n is n-1.
Sum of entries in row n = A082582(n).
Sum(k*T(n,k),k>=0) = A278133(n)

FORMULA
Formula (explained on the Maple program): eq is the recursion equation given in Sec. 2 of the Blecher et al. reference; ic is the initial condition; the resulting g[j]'s agree with the generating functions given in the table on p. 39 of the Blecher et al. reference; H[j]=g[j]-g[j-1]; Hser[j] is the series expansion of H[j], yielding the entries in column j of the triangle T.
EXAMPLE
T(4,2)=3; indeed, the bargraphs of semiperimeter 4 correspond to the compositions [3], [1,2], [2,2], [2,1], [1,1,1], three of which have height 2.
MAPLE
x := z: y := z: eq := G(h) = x*(y+G(h))+y*G(h-1)+x*(y+G(h))*G(h-1): ic := G(1) = x*y/(1-x): sol := simplify(rsolve({eq, ic}, G(h))): for j to 17 do g[j] := factor(simplify(rationalize(simplify(subs(h = j, sol))))) end do: H[1] := x*y/(1-x): for j from 2 to 17 do H[j] := factor(g[j]-g[j-1]) end do: for j to 17 do Hser[j] := series(H[j], z = 0, 20) end do: T := proc (n, k) coeff(Hser[k], z, n) end proc: for n from 2 to 15 do seq(T(n, k), k = 1 .. n-1) end do; # yields sequence in triangular form
