Comments

Sum of entries in row n is binomial(n, floor(n/2)) = A001405(n).

T(n,1) = A001405(n-2) (n>=1).

T(n,2) = A001405(n-2) (n>=2).

Sum_{k=1..n} k*T(n,k) = A191782(n).

Formula

G.f.: G(t,z) = (1 - z*c + t*z^3*c^2)/((1 - z*c)*(1 - t*z)*(1 - t*z^2)), where c = (1-sqrt(1 - 4*z^2))/(2*z^2).

Example

T(5,2)=3 because we have UUDDU, UUDUD, and UUDUU, where U=(1,1) and D=(1,-1).
Triangle starts:
  1;
  1, 1;
  1, 1, 1;
  2, 2, 1, 1;
  3, 3, 2, 1, 1;
  6, 6, 4, 2, 1, 1;

Maple

c := ((1-sqrt(1-4*z^2))*1/2)/z^2: G := (1-z*c+t*z^3*c^2)/((1-z*c)*(1-t*z)*(1-t*z^2*c)): Gser := simplify(series(G, z = 0, 17)): for n to 13 do P[n] := sort(coeff(Gser, z, n)) end do: for n to 13 do seq(coeff(P[n], t, k), k = 1 .. n) end do; # yields sequence in triangular form
