Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of 2-Motzkin paths (i.e., Motzkin paths with blue and red level steps) without red level steps on the x-axis, having length n and k level steps (0 <= k <= n).

%C Row sums are the Catalan numbers (A000108).

%C A166073 appears to be a variant of A126222 where zeros are sorted to the start of each row. - _R. J. Mathar_, Aug 21 2010

%F T(2n,0) = C(2n,n)/(n+1) (the Catalan numbers; A000108).

%F Sum_{k=0..n} k*T(n,k) = A126223(n).

%F G.f.: G = G(t,z) satisfies z(t + z - t^2*z)G^2 - G + 1 = 0.

%e T(3,1)=4 because we have BUD, UBD, URD and UDB, where U=(1,1), D=(1,-1), B=blue (1,0), R=red (1,0).
