%N Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) = binomial(2k+2,k+1)*binomial(n,k)/(k+2) (0 <= k <= n).

%C Also, with offset 1, triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of skew Dyck paths of semilength n and ending at the point (2k,0) (1 <= k <= n). A skew Dyck path is a path in the first quadrant which begins at the origin, ends on the x-axis, consists of steps U=(1,1)(up), D=(1,-1)(down) and L=(-1,-1)(left) so that up and left steps do not overlap. The length of a path is defined to be the number of its steps. For example, T(3,2)=4 because we have UDUUDL, UUUDLD, UUDUDL and UUUDDL.

%C This sequence gives the coefficients of the Jensen polynomials (increasing powers of x) of degree n and shift 1 for the Catalan sequence A000108. See A098474 for a similar comment. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Jun 25 2019

%F Sum of row n = A002212(n+1).

%F T(n,n) = Catalan(n+1) (A000108).

%F Sum_{k=1..n} k*T(n,k) = A026388(n).

%F With offset 1, T(n,k) = c(k)*binomial(n-1,k-1), where c(j) = binomial(2j,j)/(j+1) is a Catalan number (A000108).

%F G.f.: G-1, where G=G(t,z) satisfies G = 1 + t*z*G^2 + z*(G-1).

%F T(n, k) = 4^k*[x^k]hypergeometric([3/2, -n], [3], -x). - _Peter Luschny_, Feb 03 2015, based on an observation of _Peter Bala_ in A254632.
