COMMENTS
The rows sum to A006318 (Schroeder numbers), the left column is A000108 (Catalan numbers); the next-to-left column is A001700, the alternating sum in each row but the first is 0.
T(n,k) is the number of Schroeder paths (i.e., consisting of steps U=(1,1), D=(1,-1), H=(2,0) and never going below the x-axis) from (0,0) to (2n,0), having k peaks. Example: T(2,1)=3 because we have UU*DD, U*DH and HU*D, the peaks being shown by *. E.g., T(n,k) = binomial(n,k)*binomial(2n-k,n-1)/n for n>0. - Emeric Deutsch, Dec 06 2003
A090181*A007318 as infinite lower triangular matrices. - Philippe Deléham, Oct 14 2008
T(n,k) is also the number of rooted plane trees with maximal degree 3 and k vertices of degree 2 (a node may have at most 2 children, and there are exactly k nodes with 1 child). Equivalently, T(n,k) is the number of syntactically different expressions that can be formed that use a unary operation k times, a binary operation n-k times, and nothing else (sequence of operands is fixed). - Lars Hellstrom (Lars.Hellstrom(AT)residenset.net), Dec 08 2009

FORMULA
Triangle T(n, k) (0 <= k <= n) read by rows; given by [1, 1, 1, 1, 1, ...] DELTA [1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, ...] where DELTA is the operator defined in A084938. - Philippe Deléham, Aug 12 2003
If C_n(x) is the g.f. of row n of the Narayana numbers (A001263), C_n(x) = Sum_{k=1..n} binomial(n,k-1)*(binomial(n-1,k-1)/k) * x^k and T_n(x) is the g.f. of row n of T(n,k), then T_n(x) = C_n(x+1), or T(n,k) = [x^n]Sum_{k=1..n}(A001263(n,k)*(x+1)^k). - Mitch Harris, Jan 16 2007, Jan 31 2007
G.f.: (1 - t*y - sqrt((1-y*t)^2 - 4*y)) / 2.
T(n, k) = binomial(2n-k, n)*binomial(n, k)/(n-k+1). - Philippe Deléham, Dec 07 2003

From Tom Copeland, Sep 21 2011: (Start)
With F(x,t) = (1-(2+t)*x-sqrt(1-2*(2+t)*x+(t*x)^2))/(2*x) an o.g.f. (nulling the n=0 term) in x for the A060693 polynomials in t,
G(x,t) = x/(1+t+(2+t)*x+x^2) is the compositional inverse in x.
Consequently, with H(x,t) = 1/(dG(x,t)/dx) = (1+t+(2+t)*x+x^2)^2 / (1+t-x^2), the n-th A060693 polynomial in t is given by (1/n!)*((H(x,t)*d/dx)^n) x evaluated at x=0, i.e., F(x,t) = exp(x*H(u,t)*d/d) u, evaluated at u = 0.
Also, dF(x,t)/dx = H(F(x,t),t). (End)

T(n,k) = A126216(n,k-1) + A126216(n,k) for 0 < k < n;
