%N Triangle, row sums = powers of 3, companion to A124730.

%C In A124730, the diagonals are switched. Row sums are powers of 3 in both triangles.

%F Let M = the infinite bidiagonal matrix with (2,1,2,1...) in the main diagonal and (1,2,1,2...) in the subdiagonal. Extracting finite n X n matrices of this form, we take M^n * [1,0,0,0...].

%e Row 2 = (4, 3, 2) since (using the 3 X 3 matrix m = [2,0,0; 1,1,0; 0,2,2]), m^2 * [1,0,0] = [4,3,2].

%e First few rows of the triangle are:

%e 1;

%e 2, 1;

%e 4, 3, 2;

%e 8, 7, 10, 2;

%e 16, 15, 34, 12, 4;

%e 32, 31, 98, 46, 32, 4;

%e 64, 63, 258, 144, 156, 36, 8;

%e ...

%Y Cf. A124730, A124732.
