Comments

Values generate solutions to the recurrence a(n) = a(n-1) + k(k+1)* a(n-2), a(0)=1, a(1) = k(k+1)+1. Values and sequences associated with this table are included in A072024.

Formula

Rows are generated by P(n,x) = ((x+1)^(n+2) - (-x)^(n+2))/(2*x+1).

The polynomials P(n,-x), n > 0, satisfy a Riemann hypothesis: their zeros lie on the vertical line Re x = 1/2 in the complex plane.

O.g.f.: (1+x*t+x^2*t)/((1+x*t)(1-t-x*t)) = 1 + (1+x+x^2)*t + (1+2x+2x^2)*t^2 + ... . - Peter Bala, Oct 24 2007

T(n,k) = if(k<=2*floor((n+1)/2), Sum_{j=0..floor((n+1)/2)} binomial(n-2j,k-2j), 0). - Paul Barry, Apr 08 2011 (This formula produces the odd numbered rows correctly, but not the even. - G. C. Greubel, Feb 22 2019)

Example

Rows are {1}, {1,1,1}, {1,2,2}, {1,3,4,2,1}, {1,4,7,6,3}, ... This is the same as table A035317 with an extra 1 at the end of every second row.
