A266213 Square array A(n,r), the number of neighbors at a sharp Manhattan distance r in a finite n-hypercube lattice, read by upwards antidiagonals; A(n,r) = Sum_{k=0..min(n,r)} binomial(r-1,k-1)*binomial(n,k)* 2^k. 19

COMMENTS
In an n-dimensional hypercube lattice, the array A(n,r) gives the number of nodes situated at a Manhattan distance equal to r, counting the current node. When counting coordinate offsets for neighboring nodes, binomial(n,k) chooses k nonzero coordinates from n coordinates, binomial(r-1,k-1) partitions the number r as the sum of exactly k nonzero numbers, and 2^k counts combinations of signs for coordinate offsets; starting indexing from 0 adds 1, which counts the current node.
In cellular automata theory, the cell surrounding with Manhattan distance less than or equal to r is called the von Neumann neighborhood of radius r or the diamond-shaped neighborhood to distinguish it from other generalizations of the von Neumann neighborhood for radius r>1, for instance, as a neighborhood having a difference in the range from -r to r in exactly one coordinate (the "narrow" von Neumann neighborhood of radius r).
The square array of partial sums of A(n,r) on rows gives us the Delannoy numbers A008288, which correspond to the number of nodes in the diamond-shaped neighborhood of radius r. - Dmitry Zaitsev, Dec 24 2015

FORMULA
A(n, 0)=1, n>=0, A(0, r)=0, r>0.
A(n, r) = A(n, r-1) + A(n-1, r-1) + A(n-1, r).
A(n, r) = Sum_{k=0..min(n,r)} binomial(r-1,k-1)*binomial(n,k)*2^k.
Triangle T(m, r) = A(m-r, r), n >= 0, 0 <= r <= n, otherwise 0. - Wolfdieter Lang, Jan 31 2016
A(n, k) = [x^k] ((1 + x)/(1 - x))^n. - Ilya Gutkovskiy, May 23 2017
