COMMENTS
Triangle read by rows in which row n lists the number of pairs of states of the subshells of the n-th shell of the nuclear shell model ordered by energy level in increasing order.
Row n lists a permutation of the first n positive integers.
If n is odd then row n lists the first (n+1)/2 odd numbers in decreasing order together with the first (n-1)/2 positive even numbers.
If n is even then row n lists the first n/2 even numbers in decreasing order together with the first n/2 odd numbers.
Row n >= 2, with its floor(n/2) last numbers taken as negative, lists the n different eigenvalues (in decreasing order) of the odd graph O(n). The odd graph O(n) has the (n-1)-subsets of a (2*n-1)-set as vertices, with two (n-1)-subsets adjacent if and only if they are disjoint. For example, O(3) is isomorphic to the Petersen graph. - Miquel A. Fiol, Apr 07 2024

a(n) = A162630(n)/2. - Omar E. Pol, Sep 02 2012
T(1,1) = 1; for n > 1: T(n,1) = T(n-1,1)+1 and T(n,k) = T(n-1,n-k+1), 1 < k <= n. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Dec 03 2012
From Boris Putievskiy, Jan 16 2013: (Start)
a(n) = |2*A000027(n) - A003056(n)^2 - 2*A003056(n) - 3| + floor((2*A000027(n) - A003056(n)^2 - A003056(n))/(A003056(n)+3)).
a(n) = |2*n - t^2 - 2*t - 3| + floor((2*n - t^2 - t)/(t+3)) where t = floor((-1+sqrt(8*n-7))/2). (End)
