From Lekraj Beedassy, Jun 03 2004: (Start)
Final element of a summation table (as opposed to a difference table) whose first row consists of integers 0 through n (or first n+1 nonnegative integers A001477); illustrating the case n=5:
0 1 2 3 4 5

[Empirical] a(base,n) = a(base-1,n) + 7^(n-1) for base >= 3n-2; a(base,n) = a(base-1,n) + 7^(n-1)-2 when base = 3n-3.
From Johannes W. Meijer, Aug 01 2010: (Start)
The a(n) represent the number of n-move routes of a fairy chess piece starting in a given side square (m = 2, 4, 6 or 8) on a 3 X 3 chessboard. This fairy chess piece behaves like a king on the eight side and corner squares but on the central square the king goes crazy and turns into a red king, see A179596.
For the side squares the 512 red kings lead to 47 different red king sequences, see the cross-references for some examples.
The sequence above corresponds to four A[5] vectors with the decimal [binary] values 367 [1,0,1,1,0,1,1,1,1], 463 [1,1,1,0,0,1,1,1,1], 487 [1,1,1,1,0,0,1,1,1] and 493 [1,1,1,1,0,1,1,0,1]. These vectors lead for the corner squares to A179596 and for the central square to A179597.
This sequence belongs to a family of sequences with g.f. (1+x)/(1-4*x-k*x^2). Red king sequences that are members of this family are A003947 (k=0), A015448 (k=1), A123347 (k=2), A126473 (k=3; this sequence) and A086347 (k=4). Other members of this family are A000351 (k=5), A001834 (k=-1), A111567 (k=-2), A048473 (k=-3) and A053220 (k=-4)

G.f.: Sum_{n>=0, k=0..n} T(n,k) * x^k * t^n = t*(1+x-3*x*t) / ((1-t)^2 * (1-2*x*t)^2).

Define the array B(n,p) = (Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(p+k,p) * T(n,k))/(n+p+1) for n >= 0 and p >= 0. Then see the comment of Robert Coquereaux (2014) at A193844. Conjecture: B(n+1,p) = A(n,p). (End)

Last term in each row gives A001792. Difference between center term of row 2n-1 and row sum of row n, (A053220(n+4) - A053221(n+4)) gives A045618(n).
For all integers k >= 2, if a sequence k,k-1,k+2,k-3,k+4,...,2,2k-2,1,2k-1, b0(n) with offset 1, is written, the sequence b0(2)-b0(1), b0(3)-b0(2), b0(4)-b0(3), ..., b0(2k-1)-b0(2k-2), b1(n) with offset 1, is written under it, the sequence b1(2)-b1(1), b1(3)-b1(2), b1(4)-b1(3), ..., b1(2k-2)-b1(2k-3), b2(n) with offset 1, is written under this, and so on until the sequence b(2k-3)(2)-b(2k-3)(1), b(2k-2)(n) with offset 1 (which will contain only one term), is written, and then the sequence b1(1); b1(2),b2(1); b1(3),b2(2),b3(1); ...; b1(2k-2), b2(2k-3), b3(2k-4), ..., b(2k-2)(1) is obtained, then this sequence will be identical to the first 2k^2-3k+1 terms of a(n), except that the first term of this sequence will be negative, the next two terms will be positive, the next three will be negative, the next four positive, and so on.

For a1, let
t(n,1)=[a+t(n-1,1)]/2,
t(n,n)=[b+t(n-1,n-1)]/2,
t(n,k)=[t(n-1,k-1)+t(n-1,k)]/2 for 2<=k<=n-1.
We call (t(n,k)) the (a,r,b) averaging array. If a and b
are integers and r is a rational number, then multiplying
row n of (t(n,k)) by the LCM of its denominators yields a
triangle of integers; A204201 arises in this manner from
(a,r,b)=(0,1/3,1).

Considered as a vector, the sequence = A074909 * [1, 2, 3, ...], where A074909 is the beheaded Pascal's triangle as a matrix. - Gary W. Adamson, Mar 06 2012
a(n) is the sum of the upper left n X n subarray of A052509 (viewed as an infinite square array). For example (1+1+1) + (1+2+2) + (1+3+4) = 16. - J. M. Bergot, Nov 06 2012
Number of ternary strings of length n that contain at least one 2 and at most one 0. For example, a(3) = 16 since the strings are the 6 permutations of 201, the 3 permutations of 211, the 3 permutations of 220, the 3 permutations of 221, and 222. - Enrique Navarrete, Jul 25 2021
