COMMENTS

Sum of entries in row n = 2^{2n-4}*(4 + n) = A079028(n).
In the Maple program P[n] gives the independence polynomial of the graph g_n.

FORMULA
|
Generating polynomial of row n (n>=0) is (1+x)^{2n-2}*((1+x)^2 + nx) (it is palindromic).
Bivariate generating polynomial: G(x,z) = (1-z-xz-x^2*z)/(1-z-2xz-x^2*z)^2.
G(1/x, x^2*z) = G(x,z) (this implies the above mentioned palindromicity).

EXAMPLE
|
Row 1 is 1,3,1; indeed, K_1 is the one-vertex graph and after attaching two pendant vertices we obtain the path graph ABC; the independent vertex subsets are: empty, {A}, {B}, {C}, and {A, C}.
Triangle begins:

MAPLE

G := (1-z-x*z-x^2*z)/(1-z-2*x*z-x^2*z)^2: Gser := simplify(series(G, z = 0, 10)): for n from 0 to 9 do P[n] := sort(coeff(Gser, z, n)) end do: for n from 0 to 9 do seq(coeff(P[n], x, i), i = 0 .. 2*n) end do; # yields sequence in triangular form
