%N A Catalan-type triangle read by rows, generated by iteration of convolution squares.

%C The triangle is generated by an iterative procedure in which the (n+1)-st row of the following array is the convolution square of the n-th row prepended with a 1.

%C 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, ...(given)

%C 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, ...

%C 1, 2, 5, 10, 18, 30, 47, ...

%C 1, 2, 5, 14, 34, 76, 161, ...

%C ...

%C where the rows converge to the Catalan numbers (A000108).

%C Example: second row of (1, 2, 3, ...) is prepended with a 1: (1, 1, 2, 3, ...), and the convolution square of that sequence is row 3 (1, 2, 5, 10, 18, ...).

%C Next, take finite differences of terms by columns; such that the finite difference row of the n-th column becomes the n-th row of the triangle. First few rows of the triangle (as an infinite lower triangular matrix with the rest zeros) are:

%C 1;

%C 1, 1;

%C 1, 2, 2;

%C 1, 3, 6, 4;

%C 1, 4, 13, 16, 8;

%C 1, 5, 24, 46, 40, 16;

%C 1, 6, 40, 114, 140, 96, 32;

%C 1, 7, 52, 266, 424, 392, 224, 64;

%C ...

%e Row 4 of the triangle is (1, 3, 6, 4, 0, 0, 0, ...) since the finite differences of row 4 of the array (1, 4, 10, 14, 14, ...) are (1, 3, 6, 4, 0, 0, 0, ...).

%Y Cf. A000108 (row sums).
