This sequence provides the general solution to the recurrence a(n) = a(n-1) + k*(k+1)*a(n-2), a(0)=a(1)=1. The solution is (1, 1, k^2 + k + 1, 2*k^2 + 2*k + 1, ...) whose coefficients can be read from the rows of the triangle. The row sums of the triangle are given by the case k=1. These are the Jacobsthal numbers, A001045. Viewed as a square array, its first row is (1,0,1,0,1,...) with e.g.f. cosh(x), g.f. 1/(1-x^2) and subsequent rows are successive partial sums given by 1/((1-x)^n * (1-x^2)). - Paul Barry, Mar 17 2003
Conjecture: every second column of this triangle is identical to a column in the square array A071921. For example, column 4 of A059259 (1, 3, 9, 22, 46, ...) appears to be the same as column 3 of A071921; column 6 of A059259 (1, 4, 16, 50, 130, 296, ...) appears to be the same as column 4 of A071921; and in general column 2k of A059259 appears to be the same as column k+1 of A071921. Furthermore, since A225010 is a transposition of A071921 (ignoring the latter's top row and two leftmost columns), there appears to be a correspondence between column 2k of A059259 and row k of A225010. - Mathew Englander, May 17 2014
T(n,k) is the number of n-tilings of a (one-dimensional) board that use k (1,1)-fence tiles and n-k squares. A (1,1)-fence is a tile composed of two pieces of width 1 separated by a gap of width 1. - Michael A. Allen, Jun 25 2020
See the Edwards-Allen 2020 paper, page 14, for proof of Englander's conjecture. - Michael De Vlieger, Dec 10 2020

FORMULA

G.f.: 1/(1 - x - x*y - y^2).
As a square array read by antidiagonals, this is T(n, k) = Sum_{i=0..n} (-1)^(n-i)*C(i+k, k). - Paul Barry, Jul 01 2003
T(n,k) = T(n-1,k) + T(n-2,k-1) + T(n-2,k-2), T(0,0) = T(1,0) = T(2,0) = T(2,1) = T(2,2)=1, T(1,1)=0, T(n,k)=0 if k < 0 or if k > n. - Philippe Deléham, Nov 24 2013
T(n,0) = 1, T(n,n) = (1+(-1)^n)/2, and T(n,k) = T(n-1,k) + T(n-1,k-1) for 0 < k < n. - Mathew Englander, May 24 2014
T(n,k) + T(n-1,k-1) = binomial(n,k) if n >= k > 0.
T(2*n-1,2*n-2) = T(2*n,2*n-1) = n, T(2*n,2*n-2) = n^2, T(2*n+1,2*n-1) = n*(n+1) for n > 0.
T(n,2) = binomial(n-2,2) + n - 1 for n > 1 and T(n,3) = binomial(n-3,3) + 2*binomial(n-2,2) for n > 2.
