From Tom Copeland, Nov 16 2016: (Start)
This signed Pascal matrix IP and the Pascal matrix P contain the coefficients of a prototypical pair of Appell polynomial sequences that are inverse under umbral composition with e.g.f.s e^((x-1)*t) = e^(-t) e^(xt) = f(t) e^(xt) and e^((x+1)t) = e^t e^(xt) = g(t) e^(xt) and row polynomials q_n(x) = (x-1)^n and p_n(x) = (x+1)^n, respectively. The inverse property for an Appell pair is reflected in IP*P = identity matrix, f(t) = 1/g(t), the umbral relation p_n(q.(x)) = x^n = q_n(p.(x)), and their respective raising operators R_(Ip) = x - h(D) and R_P = x + h(D) differing only in the sign of the differential term (h(D) = 1, in this case). The lowering operator for an Appell sequence is L = D = d/dx with L p_n(x) = n*p_(n-1)(x), and the raising operator is defined by R p_n(x) = p_(n+1)(x).
The related signed Pascal matrix M with M(n,k) = (-1)^n IP(n,k) = (-1)^k P(n,k) has the e.g.f. e^((1-x)t) = e^t e^(-xt), and w_n(x) = (1-x)^n is not an Appell sequence, but it is a Sheffer sequence with lowering and raising operators L = -D and R = 1 - x, and M = M^(-1) since w_n(w.(x)) = (1-w.(x))^n = sum_{k = 0,..,n} binomial(n,k) (-1)^k w_k(x) = (1-(1-x))^n = x^n.
Umbral composition of a pair of Sheffer polynomial sequences, of which Appell sequences are a special class, is equivalent to the multiplication of their respective coefficient matrices.

FORMULA
T(n,k) = (-1)^(n-k)*binomial(n,k) = (-1)^(n-k)*A007318(n,k).
T(n,k) = T(n-1,k-1)-T(n-1,k). - Philippe Deléham, Oct 10 2011
G.f.: 1/(1+x-x*y). - R. J. Mathar, Aug 11 2015 [corrected by Anders Claesson, Nov 28 2015]
Conjecture from Dale Gerdemann, Nov 28 2015: T(n,k) = (n-k+1)*T(n-1,k-1) + (k-1)*T(n-1,k). Proof from Anders Claesson, Nov 29 2015: It follows from T(n,k) = T(n-1,k-1) - T(n-1,k) and n*T(n-1,k-1) = k*T(n,k) that (n-k+1)*T(n-1,k-1) + (k-1)*T(n-1,k) = n*T(n-1,k-1) - (k-1)*T(n-1,k-1) + (k-1)*T(n-1,k) = n*T(n-1,k-1) - (k-1)*(T(n-1,k-1) - T(n-1,k)) = n*T(n-1,k-1) - (k-1)*T(n,k) = n*T(n-1,k-1) - k*T(n,k) + T(n,k) = T(n,k). QED
(-1)^(n+1) Sum_{k=1..n} T(n,k)/k = Sum_{k=1..n} 1/k = H(n) where H(n) is the n-th harmonic number. For a proof see link "Relation between binomial coefficients and harmonic numbers". - Wolfgang Hintze, Oct 22 2016
T(n,k) = binomial(-1-k,n-k). - Robert A. Russell, Jan 16 2020
