%N Triangle T(n,k) (0 <= k <= n) giving number of tilings of the k-dimensional zonotope constructed from n vectors.

%C The zonotope Z(n,k) is the projection of the n-dimensional hypercube onto the k-dimensional space and the tiles are the projections of the k-dimensional faces of the hypercube.

%C T(n,k) is also the number of signotopes on n elements of rank r=k+1. A signotope on n elements of rank r is a mapping X:{{1..n} choose r}->{+,-} such that for any r+1 indices I={i_0,...,i_r} with i_0 < i_1 < ... < i_r, the sequence X(I-i_0), X(I-i_1), ..., X(I-i_r) changes its sign at most once (see Felsner-Weil reference). - _Manfred Scheucher_, Feb 09 2022
