%N Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of polygons with 2*n sides, of which k run through the center of a circle, on the circumference of which the 2*n vertices of the polygon are arranged at equal spacing.

%C Rotations and reflections are counted separately.

%C By "2*n-sided polygons" we mean the polygons that can be drawn by connecting 2*n equally spaced points on a circle.

%C T(0,0)=0 and T(0,1)=1 by convention.

%C The sequence is limited to even-sided polygons, since all odd-sided polygons have no side passing through the center.

%F T(n,n) = 2^(n-1) * (n-1)! for all n >= 1.

%F T(n,0) = A307923(n) for all n>=1.

%F T(n,k) = binomial(n,k)* Sum_{i=k..n} (-1)^(i-k)*binomial(n-k,i-k)*(2n-1-i)!*2^(i-1), for n>=2 and 0<=k<=n.
