%N Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is number of hex trees with n edges and k vertices of outdegree 1 (0<=k<=n).

%C A hex tree is a rooted tree where each vertex has 0, 1, or 2 children and, when only one child is present, it is either a left child, or a median child, or a right child (name due to an obvious bijection with certain tree-like polyhexes; see the Harary-Read paper).

%C Sum of terms in row n = A002212(n+1).

%C Column 0 yields the aerated Catalan numbers (1,0,1,0,2,0,5,0,14,...).

%C T(n,n) = 3^n (see A000244).

%C Sum_{k=0..n} k*T(n,k) = 3*A026376(n) (n>=1).

%H F. Harary and R. C. Read, <a href="https://doi.org/10.1017/S0013091500009135">The enumeration of tree-like polyhexes</a>, Proc. Edinburgh Math. Soc. (2) 17 (1970), 1-13.

%F T(n,k) = [3^k/(n+1)]binomial(n+1,k)*binomial(n+1-k,(n-k)/2) (0<=k<=n).

%F G.f.: G=G(t,z) satisfies G=1+3tzG+z^2*G^2.

%e Triangle starts:

%e 1;

%e 0, 3;

%e 1, 0, 9;

%e 0, 9, 0, 27;

%e 2, 0, 54, 0, 81;

%p T:=proc(n,k) if n-k mod 2 = 0 then 3^k*binomial(n+1,k)*binomial(n+1-k,(n-k)/2)/(n+1) else 0 fi end: for n from 0 to 11 do seq(T(n,k),k=0..n) od; # yields sequence in triangular form
