COMMENTS
This is the fifth member, d=5, in the family of triangles of figurate numbers, called (d,1) Pascal triangles: A007318 (Pascal), A029653, A093560-1, for d=1..4.
This is an example of a Riordan triangle (see A093560 for a comment and A053121 for a comment and the 1991 Shapiro et al. reference on the Riordan group). Therefore the o.g.f. for the row polynomials p(n,x):=Sum_{m=0..n} a(n,m)*x^m is G(z,x)=(1+4*z)/(1-(1+x)*z).
The SW-NE diagonals give A022095(n-1) = Sum_{k=0..ceiling((n-1)/2)} a(n-1-k,k), n >= 1, with n=0 value 4. Observation by Paul Barry, Apr 29 2004. Proof via recursion relations and comparison of inputs.
The array F(5;n,m) gives in the columns m >= 1 the figurate numbers based on A016861, including the heptagonal numbers A000566 (see the W. Lang link).
For a closed-form formula for generalized Pascal's triangle see A228576. - Boris Putievskiy, Sep 09 2013
The n-th row polynomial is (4 + x)*(1 + x)^(n-1) for n >= 1. More generally, the n-th row polynomial of the Riordan array ( (1-a*x)/(1-b*x), x/(1-b*x) ) is (b - a + x)*(b + x)^(n-1) for n >= 1. - Peter Bala, Mar 02 2018

FORMULA
a(n, m) = F(5;n-m, m) for 0<= m <= n, otherwise 0, with F(5;0, 0)=1, F(5;n, 0)=5 if n>=1 and F(5;n, m):=(5*n+m)*binomial(n+m-1, m-1)/m if m>=1.
G.f. column m (without leading zeros): (1+4*x)/(1-x)^(m+1), m>=0.
Recursion: a(n, m)=0 if m>n, a(0, 0)= 1; a(n, 0)=5 if n>=1; a(n, m)= a(n-1, m) + a(n-1, m-1).
T(n, k) = C(n, k) + 4*C(n-1, k). - Philippe Deléham, Aug 28 2005
exp(x) * e.g.f. for row n = e.g.f. for diagonal n. For example, for n = 3 we have exp(x)*(5 + 11*x + 7*x^2/2! + x^3/3!) = 5 + 16*x + 34*x^2/2! + 60*x^3/3! + 95*x^4/4! + .... The same property holds more generally for Riordan arrays of the form ( f(x), x/(1 - x) ). - Peter Bala, Dec 22 2014
