This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

A055587 Triangle with columns built from row sums of the partial row sums triangles obtained from Pascal's triangle A007318. Essentially A049600 formatted differently.

Comments

In the language of the Shapiro et al. reference (given in A053121) such a lower triangular (ordinary) convolution array, considered as matrix, belongs to the Riordan-group. The G.f. for the row polynomials p(n,x) (increasing powers of x) is 1/((1-z)*(1-x*z*(1-z)/(1-2*z))).
Column m (without leading zeros) is obtained from convolution of A000012 (powers of 1) with m-fold convoluted A011782.

Examples

			{1}; {1, 1}; {1, 2, 1}; {1, 4, 3, 1}; {1, 8, 8, 4, 1}; ...
Fourth row polynomial (n=3): p(3,x)= 1+4*x+3*x^2+x^3

Formula

a(n, m)= Am(n, 0) if n >= m >= 0 and a(n, m) := 0 if nA007318) with the lower triangular matrix A007318 (Pascal triangle) and prs^(m) is the partial row sums (prs) mapping for triangular matrices applied m times. See e.g. A055584 for m=4.
G.f. for column m: (1/(1-x))*(x*(1-x)/(1-2*x))^m, m >= 0.
T(n, k) = sum_{j=0..n-k} C(n-k, j)*C(k+j-1, k-1). - Paul D. Hanna, Jan 14 2004
