(column 1) = (1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 13, 21, 33, 55, 89, 144, 232, ...) is linearly recurrent with signature (1,1,0,1,-1,-1).
(column 2) = (1, 2, 6, 19, 40, 104, 273, 747, 1870, 4895, 12816, 33784, ...) is linearly recurrent with signature (3, -1, 0, 8, -24, 8, 0, -8, 24, -8, 0, 1, -3, 1).
Row n is also the linear recurrence signature of L(i)^n - L(i-1)(^n, where L = A000032 (Lucas numbers).
