COMMENTS
The generalized Blasius o.d.e. of order n whose infinite series solution involves row n of this square array appears in Salié (1955). Rows n = 2 and n = 3 of this array appear in Kuba and Panholzer (2014, 2016), who give combinatorial interpretations to the numbers in those two rows.
Eq. (22) in Kuba and Panholzer (2014, p. 23) and Eq. (5) in Kuba and Panholzer (2016, p. 233) are general o.d.e.s for generating infinite sequences of numbers with some combinatorial properties. Even though they bear some similarity to Salié's general o.d.e., it is not clear whether either one can be used to give combinatorial interpretation to the numbers in rows n >= 4 of the current square array.

Hans Salié, Über die Koeffizienten der Blasiusschen Reihen, Math. Nachr. 14 (1955), 241-248 (1956). [In the article the array is denoted by c^{(n)}_v for n, v >= 1. We have A(n, k) = c^{(n)}_{k+1} for n >= 1 and k >= 0. The Catalan numbers (row n = 0 for A(n, k)) do not appear in Salié's article.]
FORMULA
A(n, k) = Sum_{v=0..k-1} binomial(n*k-1, n*v)*A(n, v)*A(n, k-1-v) for k > 0 and A(n, 0) = 1.
A(n, 2) = A260876(n, 2) = binomial(2*n - 1, n) + 1 for n >= 0.
A(n, 3) = A260876(n, 2) + A260876(n, 3) - 1 = (binomial(3*n - 1, 2*n) + 1) * (binomial(2*n - 1, n) + 1) + binomial(3*n - 1, n) for n >= 1.
EXAMPLE
Table A(n,k) (with rows n >= 0 and columns k >= 0) begins as follows:
[0] 1, 1, 2, 5, 14, 42, 132, ... A000108
[1] 1, 1, 2, 6, 24, 120, 720, ... A000142
[2] 1, 1, 4, 34, 496, 11056, 349504, ... A002105
[3] 1, 1, 11, 375, 27897, 3817137, 865874115, ... A018893
[4] 1, 1, 36, 6306, 3156336, 3501788976, 7425169747776, ...
MAPLE
A := proc(n, k) option remember; if k = 0 then 1 else

MATHEMATICA
