%C A080928 Gives the general solution to a(n) = 2*a(n-1) + k(k+2)*a(n-2), a(0) = a(1) = 1. The value k=1 gives the row sums of the triangle, or 1,1,5,13,... This is A046717, the solution to a(n) = 2*a(n-1) + 3*a(n-2), a(0)=a(1)=1.
%C A080928 Product of A007318 and A007318 with every odd-indexed row set to zero. - _Paul Barry_, Nov 08 2005

%F A080928 T(n, n) = (n+1) mod 2, T(n, k) = C(n, k)*2^(n-k-1).
%F A080928 T(n, 0) = A011782(n), T(n, k)=0, k>n, T(2n, 2n)=1, T(2n-1, 2n-1)=0, T(n+1, n)=n+1. Otherwise T(n, k) = T(n-1, k-1) + 2T(n-1, k). Rows are the coefficients of the polynomials in the expansion of (1-x)/((1+k*x)*(1-(k+2)*x)). The main diagonal is 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, ... with g.f. 1/(1-x^2). Subsequent subdiagonals are given by A011782(k)*C(n+k, k) with g.f. A011782(k)/(1-x)^k.
