Row sums are A027649. Antidiagonal sums are A106517.
From Wolfdieter Lang, Jan 09 2015: (Start)
Alternating row sums give A025192. The A-sequence of this Riordan lower triangular matrix is [1, 1, repeat(0, )] (leading to the Pascal recurrence for T(n,k) for n >= k >= 1. The Z-sequence is [3, repeat(0, )] (leading to the recurrence T(n,0) = 3*T(n-1,0), n >= 1. For A- and Z-sequences see the W. Lang link under A006232.
The inverse of this Riordan matrix is Tinv = ((1 - 2*x)/(1 + x), x/(1 + x)) given as a signed version of A093560: Tinv(n,m) = (-1)^(n-m)*A093560(n,m). (End)

FORMULA
Riordan array (1/(1-3x), x/(1-x)); Number triangle T(n, 0)=A000244(n), T(n, k)=T(n-1, k-1)+T(n-1, k); T(n, k)=sum{j=0..n, binomial(n, k+j)2^j}.
From Peter Bala, Jul 16 2013: (Start)
T(n,k) = binomial(n,k) + 2*sum {i = 1..n} 3^(i-1)*binomial(n-i,k).
O.g.f.: (1 - t)/( (1 - 3*t)*(1 - (1 + x)*t) ) = 1 + (3 + x)*t + (9 + 4*x + x^2)*t^2 + ....
The n-th row polynomial R(n,x) = 1/(x - 2)*( x*(x + 1)^n - 2*3^n ). (End)
Closed-form formula for arbitrary left and right borders of Pascal-like triangle see A228196. - Boris Putievskiy, Aug 19 2013
T(n,k) = 4*T(n-1,k) + T(n-1,k-1) - 3*T(n-2,k) - 3*T(n-2,k-1), T(0,0)=1, T(1,0)=3, T(1,1)=1, T(n,k)=0 if k<0 or if k>n. - Philippe Deléham, Dec 26 2013
From Peter Bala, Dec 23 2014: (Start)
exp(x) * e.g.f. for row n = e.g.f. for diagonal n. For example, for n = 3 we have exp(x)*(27 + 13*x + 5*x^2/2! + x^3/3!) = 27 + 40*x + 58*x^2/2! + 82*x^3/3! + 113*x^4/4! + .... The same property holds more generally for Riordan arrays of the form ( f(x), x/(1 - x) ).
Let M denote the present triangle. For k = 0,1,2,... define M(k) to be the lower unit triangular block array
/I_k 0\
\ 0 M/ having the k X k identity matrix I_k as the upper left block; in particular, M(0) = M. The infinite product M(0)*M(1)*M(2)*..., which is clearly well-defined, is equal to A143495 (but with a different offset). See the Example section. Cf. A055248. (End)
