Triangle read by rows: T(0,0) = 1; T(n,k) = - T(n-1,k) - 2 T(n-3,k-1) for k = 0..floor(n/3); T(n,k)=0 for n or k < 0.

COMMENTS
The numbers in rows of the triangle are along "second layer" skew diagonals pointing top-left in center-justified triangle given in A065109 ((2-x)^n) and along "second layer" skew diagonals pointing top-right in center-justified triangle given in A303872 ((-1+2x)^n), see links. (Note: First layer skew diagonals in center-justified triangles of coefficients in expansions of (2-x)^n and (-1+2x)^n are given in A133156 (coefficients of Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind) and A305098 respectively.) The coefficients in the expansion of 1/(1+x+2x^3) are given by the sequence generated by the row sums (see A077973).

FORMULA
T(n,k) = (-1)^(n - 3k) * 2^k / ((n - 3k)! k!) * (n - 2k)! where n is a nonnegative integer and k = 0..floor(n/3).
