COMMENTS
A Fibonacci tree of order n (n>=2) is a complete binary tree whose left subtree is the Fibonacci tree of order n-1 and whose right subtree is the Fibonacci tree of order n-2; each of the Fibonacci trees of order 0 and 1 is defined as a single node.
Sum of entries in row n is the Fibonacci number F(n+1) (A000045(n+1)).
Sum(k*T(n,k),k>=0)=A067331(n-2).
T(n,k) is the number of vertices in the Fibonacci cube G_{n-1} that have eccentricity k (see Klavzar and Mollard reference). - Michel Mollard, Aug 20 2014
T(n,k) is the coefficient of x^{n-k} in the vertex-nullity interlace polynomial q(P_n) of the path graph P_n on n vertices. - Feryal Alayont, Jun 06 2026
