Previous name was: "Triangle of coefficients (lower triangular matrix) of certain (binomial) convolution polynomials related to 1/cosh(x) and tanh(x). Use trigonometric functions for the unsigned version".
Row sums give A009265(n) (signed); A009244(n) (unsigned). Column sequences without interspersed zeros and unsigned: A000364 (Euler), A000364, A060075-8 for m=0,...,5.
a(n,m) = ((-1)^((n-m)/2))*ay(m+1,(n-m)/2) if n-m is even, else 0; where the rectangular array ay(n,m) is defined in A060058 Formula.
The row polynomials p(n,x) appear in a problem of thermo field dynamics (Bogoliubov transformation for the harmonic Bose oscillator). See the link to a .ps.gz file where they are called R_{n}(x).
The inverse of this Sheffer matrix with elements a(n,m) is the Sheffer matrix A060524. This Sheffer triangle appears in the Moyal star product of the harmonic Bose oscillator: x^{*n} = Sum_{m=0..n} a(n,m) x^m with x = 2 (bar a) a/hbar. See the Th. Spernat link, pp. 28, 29, where the unsigned version is used for y=-ix. - Wolfdieter Lang, Jul 22 2005
In the umbral calculus (see Roman reference under A048854) the p(n,x) are called Sheffer for (g(t)=1/cosh(arctanh(t)) = 1/sqrt(1-t^2), f(t)=arctanh(t)).
p(n,x) := Sum_{m=0..n} a(n,m)*x^m, n >= 0, are monic polynomials satisfying p(n,x+y) = Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(n,k)*p(k,x)*q(n-k,y) (binomial, also called exponential, convolution polynomials) with the row polynomials of the associated triangle q(n,x) := Sum_{m=0..n} A111593(n,m)*x^m. E.g.f. for p(n,x) is exp(x*tanh(z))*cosh(z)(signed). [Corrected by Wolfdieter Lang, Sep 12 2005]
Exponential Riordan array [sech(x), tanh(x)]. Unsigned triangle is [sec(x), tan(x)]. - Paul Barry, Jan 10 2011

Examples

			p(3,x) = -5*x + x^3.
Exponential convolution together with A111593 for row polynomials q(n,x), case n=2: -1+(x+y)^2 = p(2,x+y) = 1*p(0,x)*q(2,y) + 2*p(1,x)*q(1,y) + 1*p(2,x)*q(0,y) = 1*1*y^2 + 2*x*y + 1*(-1+x^2)*1.

Formula

E.g.f. for column m: (((tanh(x))^m)/m!)/cosh(x), m >= 0. Use trigonometric functions for unsigned case.
a(n, m) = a(n-1, m-1)-((m+1)^2)*a(n-1, m+1); a(0, 0)=1; a(n, -1) := 0, a(n, m)=0 if n < m. Use sum of the two recursion terms for unsigned case.
a(n, k) = (1/(k+1)!)*Sum_{q=0..n} C(n,q)*((-1)^(n-q)+1)*((-1)^(q-k)+1)*Sum_{j=0..q-k} C(j+k,k)*(j+k+1)!*2^(q-j-k-2)*(-1)^j*Stirling2(q+1,j+k+1). - Vladimir Kruchinin, Feb 12 2019
