A095802 Upper right triangular matrix T^2, where T(i,j) = (-1)^i*(1-2*i) for 1 <= i <= j. 1

%S 1,-2,9,3,-6,25,-4,15,-10,49,5,-12,35,-14,81,-6,21,-20,63,-18,121,7,

%N Upper right triangular matrix T^2, where T(i,j) = (-1)^i*(1-2*i) for 1 <= i <= j.

%C Equivalently, (lower left) triangle M^2 = transpose(T)^2. The following description refers to the lower triangular version, but OEIS's "TABL" link displays the values more appropriately as an upper right triangle. - _M. F. Hasler_, Apr 18 2009

%C For n rows, use matrices in each row from the sequence 1, -3, 5, -7, ... (filling in with zeros except for the n-th row). Let the matrix = M, then square and delete the zeros. For example, the 3-row generator would be [1 0 0 / 1 -3 0 / 1 -3 5] = M. The nonzero elements of M^2 give the first 6 terms of the sequence.

%F Diagonal elements are the odd squares: a(k(k+1)/2)=(2k+1)^2. First element in row k is (-1)^k*k. - _M. F. Hasler_, Apr 18 2009

%e The matrix

%e [ 1 0 0 0 ...]

%e [ 1 -3 0 0 ...]

%e [ 1 -3 5 0 ...]

%e [ 1 -3 5 -7 ...]

%e squared yields

%e [ +1 0 0 0 ...]

%e [ -2 +9 0 0 ...]

%e [ +3 -6 25 0 ...]

%e [ -4 15 -10 49 ...]; the lower left triangle gives this sequence: 1; -2, 9; 3, -6, 25; ...

%o (PARI) T=matrix(12,12,i,j,if(j>=i,(-1)^i*(1-2*i)))^2; concat(vector(#T,i,vecextract(T[,i],2^i-1))) \\ _M. F. Hasler_, Apr 18 2009

%Y Row sums with signs as shown = A002412, Hexagonal pyramidal numbers: (1, 7, 22, 50, 95, ...).

%Y Cf. A002412.

%K sign,tabl

%O 1,2
