COMMENT

Row sums of the unsigned triangle yield A006234. The unsigned triangle is the mirror image of A103407.

EXAMPLE

The monic characteristic polynomial of the matrix [3 1 1 / 1 3 1 / 1 1 3] is x^3 - 9x^2 + 24x - 20; so T(3,0)=-20, T(3,1)=24, T(3,2)=-9, T(3,3)=1.

Triangle begins:

1;

-3,1;

8,-6,1;

-20,24,-9,1;

48,-80,48,-12,1;

MAPLE

with(linalg): a:=proc(i, j) if i=j then 3 else 1 fi end: 1; for n from 1 to 10 do seq(coeff(expand(x*charpoly(matrix(n, n, a), x)), x^k), k=1..n+1) od; # yields the sequence in triangular form
