COMMENTS
T(n,k) is also the number of Dyck paths of semilength n having k pairs of consecutive valleys at the same level. Example: T(4,1)=4 because we have U(DU)(DU)UDD, U(DU)UD(DU)D, UUD(DU)(DU)D, and UU(DU)(DU)DD, where U=(1,1), D=(1,-1); the pairs of consecutive same-level valleys are shown between parentheses. - Emeric Deutsch, Jun 19 2011
Rows 0 and 1 contain one term each; row n contains n-1 terms (n>=2).
Row sums are the Catalan numbers (A000108).
Column 0 yields A059019.
Sum(k*T(n,k), k=0..n-1) = 6*binomial(2*n-1,n-3)/(n+3) (A003517).

FORMULA
G.f.: (1-t*z*C)/((1-z)*(1-t*z*C)-z^2*C), where C=(1-sqrt(1-4*z))/(2*z) is the Catalan function.
EXAMPLE
T(4,1) = 4 because we have UU(DU)DDUD, UDUU(DU)DD, UU(DU)UDDD and UUUD(DU)DD, where U=(1,1), D=(1,-1); the valleys at level 1 are shown between parentheses.
