COMMENT
|
Sum of entries in row n = n(2n-1)=A000384(n).
The entries in row n are the coefficients of the Wiener polynomial of the grid P_2 x P_n.
Sum(k*T(n,k),k=1..n)=A143371(n) = the Wiener index of the grid P_2 x P_n.
The average of all distances in the grid P_2 x P_n is (n+2)/3.

FORMULA
|
G.f.=G(q,z)=qz(1+2z+qz)/[(1-qz)(1-z)^2].
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
T(2,1)=4 because in the graph P_2 x P_2 (a square) we have 4 distances equal to 1.
Triangle starts: 1; 4,2; 7,6,2; 10,10,6,2; 13,14,10,6,2;

MAPLE
|
G:=q*z*(1+2*z+q*z)/((1-z)^2*(1-q*z)): Gser:= simplify(series(G, z=0, 15)): for n to 12 do p[n]:=sort(coeff(Gser, z, n)) end do: for n to 12 do seq(coeff(p[n], q, j), j=1..n) end do; # yields sequence in triangular form
