%N A(n, k) = hypergeometric([-k, k+1], [-k-1], n), square array read by ascending antidiagonals for n,k >= 0.

%F A(n, k) = [x^k] 1/(x - x^2*C(n*x)) if n > 0 and C(x) = (1 - sqrt(1 - 4*x))/(2*x) is the generating function of the Catalan numbers A000108.
%F A(n, k) = Sum_{j=0..k} (binomial(2*k-j, k) - binomial(2*k-j, k+1))*n^(k-j).
%F A(n, k) = Sum_{j=0..k} binomial(k + j, k)*(1 - j/(k + 1))*n^j (cf. A009766).
%F A(n, k) = 1 + Sum_{j=0..k-1} ((1+j)*binomial(2*k-j, k+1)/(k-j))*n^(k-j).
%F A(n, k) = (1/(2*Pi))*Integral_{x=0..4*n} (sqrt(x*(4*n-x))*x^k)/(1+(n-1)*x), n>0.
%F A(n, k) ~ ((4*n)^k/(Pi^(1/2)*k^(3/2)))*(1+1/(2*n-1))^2.
%F If we shift the series f with constant term 1 to the right, invert it with respect to composition and shift the result back to the left then we call this the 'pseudo reversion' of f, prev(f). Row n of the array gives the coefficients of the pseudo reversion of f = (1 + (n - 1)*x)/((1 - x)^2) with an additional inversion of sign. Note that f is not revertible. See also the Sage implementation below.
%F A(n, k) = [x^k] prev((1 + (n - 1)*(-x))/(1 - (-x))^2).
%F A(n, k) = [x^(k+1)] cf(n, x) where cf(n, x) = K_{i>=1} c(i)/b(i) in the notation of Gauß with b(i) = 1, c(1) = 1, c(2) = -x and c(i) = -n*x for i > 2.
%F For a recurrence see the Maple section.
