%N T(n,k) = binomial(n,k)*binomial(n+k,k), 0 <= k <= n, triangle read by rows.

%C T(n,k) is the number of compatible k-sets of cluster variables in Fomin and Zelevinsky's Cluster algebra of finite type B_n. Take a row of this triangle regarded as a polynomial in x and rewrite as a polynomial in y := x+1. The coefficients of the polynomial in y give a row of triangle A008459 (squares of binomial coefficients). For example, x^2+6*x+6 = y^2+4*y+1. - _Paul Boddington_, Mar 07 2003

%C T(n,k) is the number of lattice paths from (0,0) to (n,n) using steps E=(1,0), N=(0,1) and D=(1,1) (i.e., bilateral Schroeder paths), having k N=(0,1) steps. E.g. T(2,0)=1 because we have DD; T(2,1) = 6 because we have NED, NDE, EDN, END, DEN and DNE; T(2,2)=6 because we have NNEE, NENE, NEEN, EENN, ENEN and ENNE. - _Emeric Deutsch_, Apr 20 2004

%C Another version of [1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, ...] DELTA [0, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, ...] = 1; 1, 0; 1, 2, 0; 1, 6, 6, 0; 1, 12, 30, 20, 0; ..., where DELTA is the operator defined in A084938. - _Philippe Deléham_ Apr 15 2005

%C Terms in row n are the coefficients of the Legendre polynomial P(n,2x+1) with increasing powers of x.

%C From _Peter Bala_, Oct 28 2008: (Start)

%C Row n of this triangle is the f-vector of the simplicial complex dual to an associahedron of type B_n (a cyclohedron) [Fomin & Reading, p.60]. See A008459 for the corresponding h-vectors for associahedra of type B_n and A001263 and A033282 respectively for the h-vectors and f-vectors for associahedra of type A_n.

%C An alternative description of this triangle in terms of f-vectors is as follows. Let A_n be the root lattice generated as a monoid by {e_i - e_j: 0 <= i,j <= n+1}. Let P(A_n) be the polytope formed by the convex hull of this generating set. Then the rows of this array are the f-vectors of a unimodular triangulation of P(A_n) [Ardila et al.]. A008459 is the corresponding array of h-vectors for these type A_n polytopes. See A127674 (without the signs) for the array of f-vectors for type C_n polytopes and A108556 for the array of f-vectors associated with type D_n polytopes.

%C The S-transform on the ring of polynomials is the linear transformation of polynomials that is defined on the basis monomials x^k by S(x^k) = binomial(x,k) = x(x-1)...(x-k+1)/k!. Let P_n(x) denote the S-transform of the n-th row polynomial of this array. In the notation of [Hetyei] these are the Stirling polynomials of the type B associahedra. The first few values are P_1(x) = 2*x + 1, P_2(x) = 3*x^2 + 3*x + 1 and P_3(x) = (10*x^3 + 15*x^2 + 11*x + 3)/3. These polynomials have their zeros on the vertical line Re x = -1/2 in the complex plane, that is, the polynomials P_n(-x) satisfy a Riemann hypothesis. See A142995 for further details. The sequence of values P_n(k) for k = 0,1,2,3, ... produces the n-th row of A108625. (End)

%C This is the row reversed version of triangle A104684. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Sep 12 2016

%C T(n, k) is also the number of (n-k)-dimensional faces of a convex n-dimensional Lipschitz polytope of real functions f defined on the set X = {1, 2, ..., n+1} which satisfy the condition f(n+1) = 0 (see Gordon and Petrov). - _Stefano Spezia_, Sep 25 2021

%C The rows seem to give (up to sign) the coefficients in the expansion of the integer-valued polynomial ((x+1)*(x+2)*(x+3)*...*(x+n) / n!)^2 in the basis made of the binomial(x+i,i). - _F. Chapoton_, Oct 09 2022

%C Chapoton's observation above is correct: the precise expansion is ((x+1)*(x+2)*(x+3)*...*(x+n)/ n!)^2 = Sum_{k = 0..n} (-1)^k*T(n,n-k)*binomial(x+2*n-k, 2*n-k), as can be verified using the WZ algorithm. For example, n = 3 gives ((x+1)*(x+2)*(x+3)/3!)^2 = 20*binomial(x+6,6) - 30*binomial(x+5,5) + 12*binomial(x+4,4) - binomial(x+3,3). - _Peter Bala_, Jun 24 2023
