FORMULA

T(n, k)=binom(n, k)binom(k, ceil(k/2))4^(n-k).

EXAMPLE

T(2,1)=8 because we have NU, SU, EU, WU, UN, US, UE and UW, where N=(0,1,0),S=(0,-1,0), E=(1,0,0),W=(-1,0,0), U=(0,0,1) and S=(0,0,-1).

MAPLE

T:=(n, k)->binomial(n, k)*binomial(k, ceil(k/2))*4^(n-k): for n from 0 to 9 do seq(T(n, k), k=0..n) od; # yields sequence in triangular form

CROSSREFS

Row sums yield A005573. T(n, n)=A001405(n) T(n, 0)=A000302(n) (powers of 4).
