A203953 Symmetric matrix based on (1,2,1,2,1,2,...), by antidiagonals. 3

%N Symmetric matrix based on (1,2,1,2,1,2,...), by antidiagonals.

%C Let s be the periodic sequence (1,2,1,2,1,2,...) and let T be the infinite square matrix whose n-th row is formed by putting n-1 zeros before the terms of s. Let T' be the transpose of T. Then A203951 represents the matrix product M=T'*T. M is the self-fusion matrix of s, as defined at A193722. See A203954 for characteristic polynomials of principal submatrices of M, with interlacing zeros.

%e Northwest corner:

%e 1 2 1 2 1 2 1

%e 2 5 4 5 4 5 4

%t t = {1, 2}; t1 = Flatten[{t, t, t, t, t, t, t, t, t, t}];

%t s[k_] := t1[[k]];

%t U = NestList[Most[Prepend[#, 0]] &, #, Length[#] - 1] &[

%t Table[s[k], {k, 1, 15}]];

%t L = Transpose[U]; M = L.U; TableForm[M] (* A203953 *)

%t m[i_, j_] := M[[i]][[j]];

%t Flatten[Table[m[i, n + 1 - i], {n, 1, 12}, {i, 1, n}]]
