Corresponding entries in this triangle and in A060187 differ only by powers of 2. - F. Chapoton, Nov 04 2020
FORMULA
T(n,k) = t(n-k, k); t(0,0) = 1, t(n,m) = 0 if n < 0 or m < 0, else t(n,m) = f(m)*t(n-1,m) + f(n)*t(n,m-1), where f(x) = 4*x + 2.
Sum_{k=0..n} T(n,k) = A047053(n).
T(n, k) = (a*k + b)*T(n-1, k) + (a*(n-k) + b)*T(n-1, k-1), with T(n, 0) = 1, a = 4, and b = 2. - G. C. Greubel, Mar 20 2022
