COMMENT

Right-hand columns have g.f. M^k, where M is g.f. of Motzkin numbers.

Consider a semi-infinite chessboard with squares labeled (i,j), i >= 0, j >= 0; number of king-paths of length j from (0,0) to (i,j), 0 <= i <= j, is T(j,i-j). - Harrie Grondijs (hgrondijs(AT)epo.org), May 27 2005. Cf. A114929, A111808, A114972.

FORMULA

T(n, k)=Sum(i=0, Floor(k/2), binomial(n, 2i+n-k)[binomial(2i+n-k, i)-binomial(2i+n-k, i-1)]) - Herbert Kociemba (kociemba(AT)t-online.de), May 27 2004

T(n, k) = A027907(n, k) - A027907(n, k-2), k<=n.

Sum_{k, 0<=k<=n}(-1)^k*T(n,k)=A099323(n+1) . - Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Mar 19 2007

Sum(T(n,k) mod 2, 0<=k<=n) = A097357(n+1) . - Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Apr 28 2007

Sum_{k, 0<=k<=n} T(n,k)*x^(n-k)= A005043(n), A001006(n), A005773(n+1), A059738(n) for x = -1, 0, 1, 2 respectively. [From Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Nov 28 2009]
