COMMENTS
a(n,m)= A053117(n,n-m) = 2^(n-m)*A049310(n,n-m).
G.f. for row polynomials U(n,x) (signed triangle): 1/(1-2*x*z+z^2). Unsigned triangle |a(n,m)| has Fibonacci polynomials F(n+1,2*x) as row polynomials with G.f. 1/(1-2*x*z-z^2).
Row sums (unsigned triangle) A000129(n+1) (Pell). Row sums (signed triangle) A000027(n+1) (natural numbers).

FORMULA
a(n, m) := 0 if n<m or m odd, else ((-1)^(3*m/2))*(2^(n-m))*binomial(n-m/2, n-m); a(n, m) = 2*a(n-1, m) - a(n-2, m-2), a(n, -2) := 0 =: a(n, -1), a(0, 0)=1, a(n, m)= 0 if n<m or m odd; G.f. for m-th column (signed triangle): (-1)^(3*m/2)*x^m/(1-2*x)^(m/2+1) if m >= 0 is even else 0.
EXAMPLE
1;
2,0;
4,0,-1;
8,0,-4,0;
16,0,-12,0,1;
... E.g. fourth row (n=3) {8,0,-4,0} corresponds to polynomial U(3,x)= 8*x^3-4*x.
