FORMULA

G.f. = (1+t*z*S)/(1-t^2*z^2*C(z^2))-1, where S = 1/(1-z-z^2*C(z^2)) is the g.f. of the sequence binomial(n, floor(n/2)) (A001405) and C(z) = (1-sqrt(1-4z))/(2z) is the generating function of the Catalan numbers (A000108).

Sum_{k=1..n} T(n,k) = A001405(n).

T(n,1) = A001405(n-1).

Sum_{k=1..n} k*T(n,k) = A143360(n).

Sum_{k=2..n} T(n,k) = A037952(n). - R. J. Mathar, Sep 24 2021
