%N Lower triangular matrix T with first column and diagonal (1,2,3,4,...,n,...) and otherwise satisfying T(i,j) = Sum_{k=1..j} T(i-j+1,k)*T(j,k), read by rows.

%C The definition is equivalent to requiring that L'=L*Transpose(L), where L' is formed from L by shifting column j upward j-1 rows for all j. If the first column is (1,1,1,1,...,1,...} then the lower triangular matrix contains Pascal's triangle. Column two and one-half of column two are essentially A005803 (second-order Eulerian numbers 2^n - 2*n) and A000295 (Eulerian numbers 2^n - n - 1), respectively. Column three is A135836.

%F T(n, n-k) = T(n, k).
