Comments

Since C(x*(1-x)) = 1/(1-x), the row sums of this triangle are (1,1,1,...). This establishes the identity Sum_{k=0..n} T(n, k) = Sum_{k=0..n} (-1)^(n-k)*A000108(k)*binomial(k,n-k) = 1.

Formula

T(n, k) = (-1)^(n-k)*binomial(k, n-k)*Catalan(k).

Sum_{k=0..n} T(n, k) = A000012(n).

Sum_{k=0..floor(n/2)} T(n-k, k) = (-1)^n*A115178(n) (upward diagonal sums).

T(n, k) = (-1)^(n+k)*A117434(n, k).
