All binary self-dual codes of length 2n, for n > 0, must contain at least a(n) codewords of weight n. More to the point, there will always be at least one, perhaps unique, binary self-dual code of length 2n that will contain exactly a(n) codewords that have a hamming weight equal to half the length of the code (n). This code can be constructed by direct summing the unique binary self-dual code of length 2 (up to permutation equivalence) to itself n times. A permutation equivalent code can be constructed by augmenting two identity matrices of length n together. - Nathan J. Russell, Nov 25 2018

This infinite matrix is the square of the Pascal matrix (A007318) whose rows are [ 1,0,... ], [ 1,1,0,... ], [ 1,2,1,0,... ], ...
As an upper right triangle, table rows give number of points, edges, faces, cubes,
4D hypercubes etc. in hypercubes of increasing dimension by column. - Henry Bottomley, Apr 14 2000. More precisely, the (i,j)-th entry is the number of j-dimensional subspaces of an i-dimensional hypercube (see the Coxeter reference). - Christof Weber, May 08 2009

T(n,k) is the number of elements of the Coxeter group B_n with descent set contained in {s_k}, 0<=k<=n-1. For T(n,n), we interpret this as the number of elements of B_n with empty descent set (since s_n does not exist). - Elizabeth Morris (epmorris(AT)math.washington.edu), Mar 01 2006
Let S be a binary relation on the power set P(A) of a set A having n = |A| elements such that for every element x, y of P(A), xSy if x is a subset of y. Then T(n,k) = the number of elements (x,y) of S for which y has exactly k more elements than x. - Ross La Haye, Oct 12 2007
T(n,k) is number of paths in the first quadrant going from (0,0) to (n,k) using only steps B=(1,0) colored blue, R=(1,0) colored red and U=(1,1). Example: T(3,2)=6 because we have BUU, RUU, UBU, URU, UUB and UUR. - Emeric Deutsch, Nov 04 2007
T(n,k) is the number of lattice paths from (0,0) to (n,k) using steps (0,1), and two kinds of step (1,0). - Joerg Arndt, Jul 01 2011
T(i,j) is the number of i-permutations of {1,2,3} containing j 1's. Example: T(2,1)=4 because we have 12, 13, 21 and 31; T(3,2)=6 because we have 112, 113, 121, 131, 211 and 311. - Zerinvary Lajos, Dec 21 2007

Omitting the first row, this is the production matrix for A039683, where an equivalent differential operator can be found. - Tom Copeland, Oct 11 2016
T(n,k) is the number of functions f:[n]->[3] with exactly k elements mapped to 3. Note that there are C(n,k) ways to choose the k elements mapped to 3, and there are 2^(n-k) ways to map the other (n-k) elements to {1,2}. Hence, by summing T(n,k) as k runs from 0 to n, we obtain 3^n = Sum_{k=0..n} T(n,k). - Dennis P. Walsh, Sep 26 2017
Since this array is the square of the Pascal lower triangular matrix, the row polynomials of this array are obtained as the umbral composition of the row polynomials P_n(x) of the Pascal matrix with themselves. E.g., P_3(P.(x)) = 1 P_3(x) + 3 P_2(x) + 3 P_1(x) + 1 = (x^3 + 3 x^2 + 3 x + 1) + 3 (x^2 + 2 x + 1) + 3 (x + 1) + 1 = x^3 + 6 x^2 + 12 x + 8. - Tom Copeland, Nov 12 2018
T(n,k) is the number of 2-compositions of n+1 with some zeros allowed that have k zeros; see the Hopkins & Ouvry reference. - Brian Hopkins, Aug 16 2020

The numbers in rows of the triangle are along "third layer" skew diagonals pointing top-right in center-justified triangle given in A065109 ((2-x)^n) and along "third layer" skew diagonals pointing top-left in center-justified triangle given in A303872 ((-1+2x)^n), see links. (Note: First layer skew diagonals in center-justified triangles of coefficients in expansions of (2-x)^n and (-1+2x)^n are given in A133156 (coefficients of Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind) and A305098 respectively.) The coefficients in the expansion of 1/(1-2x+x^4) are given by the sequence generated by the row sums. The row sums give A008937. If s(n) is the row sum at n, then the ratio s(n)/s(n-1) is approximately 1.83928675521416113... (A058265: Decimal expansion of the tribonacci constant t, the real root of x^3-x^2-x-1), when n approaches infinity.

Comments

The numbers in rows of the triangle are along "second layer" skew diagonals pointing top-right in center-justified triangle given in A065109 ((2-x)^n) and along "second layer" skew diagonals pointing top-left in center-justified triangle given in A303872 ((-1+2x)^n), see links. (Note: First layer skew diagonals in center-justified triangles of coefficients in expansions of (2-x)^n and (-1+2x)^n are given in A133156 (coefficients of Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind) and A305098 respectively.) The coefficients in the expansion of 1/(1-2x+x^3) are given by the sequence generated by the row sums. The row sums give A000071 (Fibonacci numbers - 1). If s(n) is the row sum at n, then the ratio s(n)/s(n-1) is approximately 1.61803398874989484... (A001622: Decimal expansion of Golden ratio (phi or tau) = (1 + sqrt(5))/2), when n approaches infinity.
