A120983 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of ternary trees with n edges and having k vertices of outdegree 3 (n>=0, k>=0). A ternary tree is a rooted tree in which each vertex has at most three children and each child of a vertex is designated as its left or middle or right child. +0

COMMENT

Row n has 1+floor(n/3) terms. Row sums yield A001764. T(n,0)=A107264(n). Sum(k*T(n,k),k>=1)=binom(3n,n-3)=A004321(n).

FORMULA

T(n,k)=(1/(n+1))*binomial(n+1,k)*sum(3^j*binomial(n+1-k,j)*binomial(j,n-3k-j), j=0..n+1-k). G.f.=G=G(t,z) satisfies G=1+3zG+3z^2*G^2+tz^3*G^3.

EXAMPLE

T(3,1)=1 because we have (Q,L,M,R), where Q denotes the root and L (M,R) denotes a left (middle, right) child of Q.
