COMMENT

Row n contains n terms. Row sums yield the ternary numbers (A001764). Column 0 is A030981. T(n,k)=2^k*binomial(n-1,k)*A030981(n-k). The average number of nonroot nodes of degree 1 over all noncrossing trees with n edges is 4n(n-1)(2n+1)/[3(3n-1)(3n-2)] ~ 8n/27.

FORMULA

T(n, k)=[2^k/(n-k)]*binomial(n-1, k)*sum((-1)^(n-k-i)*2^(n-k-i)*binomial(n-k, i)*binomial(3i, i-1), i=1..n-k) (0<=k<n).

EXAMPLE

T(2,0)=1 (/\); T(2,1)=2 (/_, _\ ).
