%N Triangle of coefficients of Chebyshev polynomials T_{2n+1} (x).

%C From _Herb Conn_, Jan 28 2005: (Start)

%C "Letting x = 2 Cos 2A, we have the following trigonometric identities:

%C "Sin 3A = 3*Sin A - 4*Sin^3 A

%C "Sin 5A = 5*Sin A - 20*Sin^3 A + 16*Sin^5 A

%C "Sin 7A = 7*Sin A - 56*Sin^3 A + 112*Sin^5 A - 64*Sin^7 A

%C "Sin 9A = 9*Sin A - 120*Sin^3 A + 432*Sin^5 A - 576*Sin^7 A + 256*Sin^9 A, etc." (End)

%C Cayley (1876) states "Write sin u = x, then we have sin u = x, [...] sin 3u = 3x - 4x^3, [...] sin 5u = 5x - 20x^3 + 16 x^5, [...]". Since T_n(cos(u)) = cos(nu) for all integer n, sin(u) = cos(u - Pi/2), and sin(u + k*Pi) = (-1)^k sin(u) it follows that T_n(sin(u)) = (-1)^((n-1)/2) sin(nu) for all odd integer n. - _Michael Somos_, Jun 19 2012

%C From _Wolfdieter Lang_, Aug 05 2014: (Start)

%C The coefficient triangle t(n,k) for the row polynomials Todd(n, x) := T_{2*n+1}(sqrt(x))/sqrt(x) = sum(t(n,k)*x^k, k=0..n) is the Riordan triangle ((1-z)/(1+z)^2, 4*z/(1+z)^2) (rewrite the g.f. for the present triangle a(n,k) given in the formula section). The triangle entries t(n,k) = a(n,k), but the interpretation of the row polynomials is different for both cases.

%C From the relation Todd(n, x) = S(n, 2*(2*x-1)) - S(n-1, 2*(2*x-1)) with the Chebyshev S-polynomials (see A049310 and the formula section of A130777) follows the recurrence: Todd(n, x) = 2*(-1)^n*(1-x)*Todd(n-1, 1-x) + (2x-1)*Todd(n-1, x), n >= 1, Todd(0, x) = 1.

%C This corresponds to the triangle recurrence t(n,k) = (2*(k+1)*(-1)^(n-k) - 1)*t(n-1,k) + 2*(1 +(-1)^(n-k))*t(n-1,k-1) + 2*(-1)^(n-k)*sum(binomial(l+1,k)*t(n-1,l), l=k+1..n-1), n >= k >= 1, t(n,k) = 0 if n < k, t(n,0) = (-1)^n*(2*n+1). Compare this with the shorter recurrence involving the rational A-sequence for this Riordan triangle which has g.f. x^2/(2-x-2*sqrt(1-x)). t(n,k) = sum(A(j)*t(n-1,k-1+j), j=0..n-k), n >= k >= 1. The Z-sequence has g.f. -(1 + 2/sqrt(1-x)). For the A- and Z-sequence see a link under A006232. (End)
