Comments

This is an ordinary convolution triangle. If a column k=0 starting at n=0 is added, then this is the Riordan triangle R(1, f(x)), with

f(x) = Product_{j>=1} (1 - (-x)^j) - 1, generating {0, {A121373(n)}{n>=1}}. - _Wolfdieter Lang, Feb 16 2021

From G. C. Greubel, Sep 07 2023: (Start)

T(n, n) = 1.

T(n, n-1) = -A000027(n-1).

T(n, n-2) = A000217(n-3).

T(n, n-3) = -A000292(n-5).

Sum_{k=1..n} T(n, k) = (-1)^n * A307059(n).

Sum_{k=1..n} (-1)^k * T(n, k) = (-1)^n * A000041(n). (End)
