COMMENTS
The PARI program gives any row k and any n-th term for this triangular array in square or right triangle array format. - Randall L Rathbun, Jan 20 2002
Triangle T(n,k), 0 <= k <= n, read by rows given by: T(0,0)=1, T(n,k)=0 if k < 0 or if k > n, T(n,0) = 2*T(n-1,0) + T(n-1,1), T(n,k) = T(n-1,k-1) + T(n-1,k) + T(n-1,k+1) for k >= 1. - Philippe Deléham, Mar 27 2007
This triangle belongs to the family of triangles defined by: T(0,0)=1, T(n,k)=0 if k < 0 or if k > n, T(n,0) = x*T(n-1,0) + T(n-1,1), T(n,k) = T(n-1,k-1) + y*T(n-1,k) + T(n-1,k+1) for k >= 1. Other triangles arise by choosing different values for (x,y): (0,0) -> A053121; (0,1) -> A089942; (0,2) -> A126093; (0,3) -> A126970; (1,0)-> A061554; (1,1) -> A064189; (1,2) -> A039599; (1,3) -> A110877; ((1,4) -> A124576; (2,0) -> A126075; (2,1) -> A038622; (2,2) -> A039598; (2,3) -> A124733; (2,4) -> A124575; (3,0) -> A126953; (3,1) -> A126954; (3,2) -> A111418; (3,3) -> A091965; (3,4) -> A124574; (4,3) -> A126791; (4,4) -> A052179; (4,5) -> A126331; (5,5) -> A125906. - Philippe Deléham, Sep 25 2007
Triangle read by rows = partial sums of A064189 terms starting from the right. - Gary W. Adamson, Oct 25 2008
Column k has e.g.f. exp(x)*(Bessel_I(k,2x)+Bessel_I(k+1,2x)). - Paul Barry, Mar 08 2011

FORMULA
a(n, k) = a(n-1, k-1) + a(n-1, k) + a(n-1, k+1) for k>0, a(n, k) = 2*a(n-1, k) + a(n-1, k+1) for k=0.
Riordan array ((sqrt(1-2x-3x^2)+3x-1)/(2x(1-3x)),(1-x-sqrt(1-2x-3x^2))/(2x)). Inverse of Riordan array ((1-x)/(1+x+x^2),x/(1+x+x^2)). First column is A005773(n+1). Row sums are 3^n (A000244). If L=A038622, then L*L' is the Hankel matrix for A005773(n+1), where L' is the transpose of L. - Paul Barry, Sep 18 2006
T(n,k) = GegenbauerC(n-k,-n+1,-1/2) + GegenbauerC(n-k-1,-n+1,-1/2). In this form also the missing first column of the triangle 1,1,1,3,7,19,... (cf. A002426) can be computed. - Peter Luschny, May 12 2016
From Peter Bala, Jul 12 2021: (Start)
T(n,k) = Sum_{j = k..n} binomial(n,j)*binomial(j,floor((j-k)/2)).
Matrix product of Riordan arrays ( 1/(1 - x), x/(1 - x) ) * ( (1 - x*c(x^2))/(1 - 2*x), x*c(x^2) ) = A007318 * A061554 (triangle version), where c(x) = (1 - sqrt(1 - 4*x))/(2*x) is the g.f. of the Catalan numbers A000108.
Triangle equals A007318^(-1) * A092392 * A007318. (End)
The n-th row polynomial R(n,x) equals the n-th degree Taylor polynomial of the function (1 + x)*(1 + x + x^2)^n expanded about the point x = 0. - Peter Bala, Sep 06 2022
