Also number of ways to legally insert two pairs of parentheses into a string of m := n-1 letters. (There are initially 2C(m+4,4) (A034827) ways to insert the parentheses, but we must subtract 2(m+1) for illegal clumps of 4 parentheses, 2m(m+1) for clumps of 3 parentheses, C(m+1,2) for 2 clumps of 2 parentheses and (m-1)C(m+1,2) for 1 clump of 2 parentheses, giving m(m+1)^2(m+2)/12 = n^2*(n^2-1)/12.) See also A000217.
E.g., for n=2 there are 6 ways: ((a))b, ((a)b), ((ab)), (a)(b), (a(b)), a((b)).
Let M_n denote the n X n matrix M_n(i,j)=(i+j); then the characteristic polynomial of M_n is x^(n-2) * (x^2-A002378(n)*x - a(n)). - Benoit Cloitre, Nov 09 2002
Let M_n denote the n X n matrix M_n(i,j)=(i-j); then the characteristic polynomial of M_n is x^n + a(n)x^(n-2). - Michael Somos, Nov 14 2002 [See A114327 for the infinite matrix M in triangular form. - Wolfdieter Lang, Feb 05 2018]
Number of permutations of [n] which avoid the pattern 132 and have exactly 2 descents. - Mike Zabrocki, Aug 26 2004
Number of tilings of a <2,n,2> hexagon.
a(n) is the number of squares of side length at least 1 having vertices at the points of an n X n unit grid of points (the vertices of an n-1 X n-1 chessboard). [For a proof, see Comments in A051602. - N. J. A. Sloane, Sep 29 2021] For example, on the 3 X 3 grid (the vertices of a 2 X 2 chessboard) there are four 1 X 1 squares, one (skew) sqrt(2) X sqrt(2) square, and one 3 X 3 square, so a(3)=6. On the 4 X 4 grid (the vertices of a 3 X 3 chessboard) there are 9 1 X 1 squares, 4 2 X 2 squares, 1 3 X 3 square, 4 sqrt(2) X sqrt(2) squares, and 2 sqrt(5) X sqrt(5) squares, so a(4) = 20. See also A024206, A108279. [Comment revised by N. J. A. Sloane, Feb 11 2015]

The second level of finite differences is a(n+2) - 2*a(n+1) + a(n) = (n+1)^2, the squares. - J. M. Bergot, May 29 2012
Because the differences of this sequence give A000330, this is also the number of squares in an n+1 X n+1 grid whose sides are not parallel to the axes.
a(n+2) gives the number of 2*2 arrays that can be populated with 0..n such that rows and columns are nondecreasing. - Jon Perry, Mar 30 2013
For n consecutive numbers 1,2,3,...,n, the sum of all ways of adding the k-tuples of consecutive numbers for n=a(n+1). As an example, let n=4: (1)+(2)+(3)+(4)=10; (1+2)+(2+3)+(3+4)=15; (1+2+3)+(2+3+4)=15; (1+2+3+4)=10 and the sum of these is 50=a(4+1)=a(5). - J. M. Bergot, Apr 19 2013

a(n) is the dimension of the space of metric curvature tensors (those having the symmetries of the Riemann curvature tensor of a metric) on an n-dimensional real vector space. - Daniel J. F. Fox, Dec 15 2018

This triangle is a member of a family of Pascal-like triangles. Let T(n, k, m) = sf(m)*F(n - 1) / (F(k - 1)*F(n - k)) if k > 0 and otherwise k^n, where F(n) = Product_{j=0..m} (n + j)! and sf(m) are the superfactorials A000178. The case m = 2 gives this triangle, some other cases are given in the crossreferences. See also A342889 for a related representation of generalized binomial coefficients.

Let p = (p1, p2,..., pn) denote a permutation of {1, 2,..., n}. The pair (p(i), p(i+1)) is a 'rise' if p(i) < p(i+1). Additionally a conventional rise is counted at the beginning of p.
T(n, k) is the number of Baxter permutations of {1,2,...,n} with k rises. For example for n = 4, [T(n, k) for k = 0..n] = [0, 1, 10, 10, 1]. The permutations, with preceding number of rises, are:
.
1 [4, 3, 2, 1],  3 [2, 3, 4, 1],  2 [3, 4, 2, 1],  3 [2, 3, 1, 4],
2 [3, 2, 4, 1],  3 [2, 1, 3, 4],  2 [3, 2, 1, 4],  3 [1, 3, 4, 2],
2 [2, 4, 3, 1],  3 [1, 3, 2, 4],  2 [4, 2, 3, 1],  3 [3, 4, 1, 2],
2 [2, 1, 4, 3],  3 [3, 1, 2, 4],  2 [4, 2, 1, 3],  3 [1, 2, 4, 3],
2 [1, 4, 3, 2],  3 [1, 4, 2, 3],  2 [4, 1, 3, 2],  3 [4, 1, 2, 3],
2 [4, 3, 1, 2],  4 [1, 2, 3, 4].
