FORMULA

Polynomial recursion: p[k, x] = x*p[k - 1, x] - p[k - 2, x]. Also T(n, k) = (-1)^Floor[(k + 1)/2]*binomial[n - Floor[(k + 1)/2], Floor[k/2]] - Roger Bagula and Gary Adamson (rlbagulatftn(AT)yahoo.com), Sep 20 2006

EXAMPLE

The characteristic function of

( 1 1 1 )

( 1 1 0 )

( 1 0 0 )

is f(x) = -x^3 + 2x^2 + x - 1, so the 3rd row is {-1; 2; 1; -1}.
