Number of antichains (or order ideals) in the poset 2*(k-1)*(n-k) or plane partitions with rows <= k-1, columns <= n-k and entries <= 2. - Mitch Harris, Jul 15 2000
T(n,k) is the number of Dyck n-paths with exactly k peaks. a(n,k) = number of pairs (P,Q) of lattice paths from (0,0) to (k,n+1-k), each consisting of unit steps East or North, such that P lies strictly above Q except at the endpoints. - David Callan, Mar 23 2004
Number of permutations of [n] which avoid-132 and have k-1 descents. - Mike Zabrocki, Aug 26 2004
T(n,k) is the number of paths through n panes of glass, entering and leaving from one side, of length 2n with k reflections (where traversing one pane of glass is the unit length). - Mitch Harris, Jul 06 2006
Antidiagonal sums given by A004148 (without first term).
T(n,k) is the number of full binary trees with n internal nodes and k-1 jumps. In the preorder traversal of a full binary tree, any transition from a node at a deeper level to a node on a strictly higher level is called a jump. - Emeric Deutsch, Jan 18 2007
From Gary W. Adamson, Oct 22 2007: (Start)
The n-th row can be generated by the following operation using an ascending row of (n-1) triangular terms, (A) and a descending row, (B); e.g., row 6:
  A: 1....3....6....10....15
  B: 15...10....6.....3.....1
  C: 1...15...50....50....15....1 = row 6.
Leftmost column of A,B -> first two terms of C; then followed by the operation B*C/A of current column = next term of row C, (e.g., 10*15/3 = 50). Continuing with the operation, we get row 6: (1, 15, 50, 50, 15, 1). (End)
The previous comment can be upgraded to: The ConvOffsStoT transform of the triangular series; and by rows, row 6 is the ConvOffs transform of (1, 3, 6, 10, 15). Refer to triangle A117401 as another example of the ConvOffsStoT transform, and OEIS under Maple Transforms. - Gary W. Adamson, Jul 09 2012
For a connection to Lagrange inversion, see A134264. - Tom Copeland, Aug 15 2008
T(n,k) is also the number of order-decreasing and order-preserving mappings (of an n-element set) of height k (height of a mapping is the cardinal of its image set). - Abdullahi Umar, Aug 21 2008
Row n of this triangle is the h-vector of the simplicial complex dual to an associahedron of type A_n [Fomin & Reading, p.60]. See A033282 for the corresponding array of f-vectors for associahedra of type A_n. See A008459 and A145903 for the h-vectors for associahedra of type B and type D respectively. The Hilbert transform of this triangle (see A145905 for the definition of this transform) is A145904. - Peter Bala, Oct 27 2008
T(n,k) is also the number of noncrossing set partitions of [n] into k blocks. Given a partition P of the set {1,2,...,n}, a crossing in P are four integers [a, b, c, d] with 1 <= a < b < c < d <= n for which a, c are together in a block, and b, d are together in a different block. A noncrossing partition is a partition with no crossings. - Peter Luschny, Apr 29 2011
Noncrossing set partitions are also called genus 0 partitions. In terms of genus-dependent Stirling numbers of the second kind S2(n,k,g) that count partitions of genus g of an n-set into k nonempty subsets, one has T(n,k) = S2(n,k,0). - Robert Coquereaux, Feb 15 2024
Diagonals of A089732 are rows of A001263. - Tom Copeland, May 14 2012
From Peter Bala, Aug 07 2013: (Start)
Let E(y) = Sum_{n >= 0} y^n/(n!*(n+1)!) = 1/sqrt(y)*BesselI(1,2*sqrt(y)). Then this triangle is the generalized Riordan array (E(y), y) with respect to the sequence n!*(n+1)! as defined in Wang and Wang.
Generating function E(y)*E(x*y) = 1 + (1 + x)*y/(1!*2!) + (1 + 3*x + x^2)*y^2/(2!*3!) + (1 + 6*x + 6*x^2 + x^3)*y^3/(3!*4!) + .... Cf. A105278 with a generating function exp(y)*E(x*y).
The n-th power of this array has a generating function E(y)^n*E(x*y). In particular, the matrix inverse A103364 has a generating function E(x*y)/E(y). (End)
T(n,k) is the number of nonintersecting n arches above the x axis, starting and ending on vertices 1 to 2n, with k being the number of arches starting on an odd vertice and ending on a higher even vertice. Example: T(3,2)=3  [16,25,34] [14,23,56] [12,36,45]. - Roger Ford, Jun 14 2014
Fomin and Reading on p. 31 state that the rows of the Narayana matrix are the h-vectors of the associahedra as well as its dual. - Tom Copeland, Jun 27 2017
The row polynomials P(n, x) = Sum_{k=1..n} T(n, k)*x^(k-1), together with P(0, x) = 1, multiplied by (n+1) are the numerator polynomials of the o.g.f.s of the diagonal sequences of the triangle A103371: G(n, x) = (n+1)*P(n, x)/(1 - x)^{2*n+1}, for n >= 0. This is proved with Lagrange's theorem applied to the Riordan triangle A135278 = (1/(1 - x)^2, x/(1 - x)). See an example below. - Wolfdieter Lang, Jul 31 2017
T(n,k) is the number of Dyck paths of semilength n with k-1 uu-blocks (pairs of consecutive up-steps). - Alexander Burstein, Jun 22 2020
In case you were searching for Narayama numbers, the correct spelling is Narayana. - N. J. A. Sloane, Nov 11 2020
Named after the Canadian mathematician Tadepalli Venkata Narayana (1930-1987). They were also called "Runyon numbers" after John P. Runyon (1922-2013) of Bell Telephone Laboratories, who used them in a study of a telephone traffic system. - Amiram Eldar, Apr 15 2021 The Narayana numbers were first studied by Percy Alexander MacMahon (see reference, Article 495) as pointed out by Bóna and Sagan (see link). - Peter Luschny, Apr 28 2022
From Andrea Arlette España, Nov 14 2022: (Start)
T(n,k) is the degree distribution of the paths towards synchronization in the transition diagram associated with the Laplacian system over the complete graph K_n, corresponding to ordered initial conditions x_1 < x_2 < ... < x_n.
T(n,k) for n=2N+1 and k=N+1 is the number of states in the transition diagram associated with the Laplacian system over the complete bipartite graph K_{N,N}, corresponding to ordered (x_1 < x_2 < ... < x_N and x_{N+1} < x_{N+2} < ... < x_{2N}) and balanced (Sum_{i=1..N} x_i/N = Sum_{i=N+1..2N} x_i/N) initial conditions. (End)
From Gus Wiseman, Jan 23 2023: (Start)
Also the number of unlabeled ordered rooted trees with n nodes and k leaves. See the link by Marko Riedel. For example, row n = 5 counts the following trees:
  ((((o))))  (((o))o)  ((o)oo)  (oooo)
             (((o)o))  ((oo)o)
             (((oo)))  ((ooo))
             ((o)(o))  (o(o)o)
             ((o(o)))  (o(oo))
             (o((o)))  (oo(o))
The unordered version is A055277. Leaves in standard ordered trees are counted by A358371. (End)

			The initial rows of the triangle are:
  [1] 1
  [2] 1,  1
  [3] 1,  3,   1
  [4] 1,  6,   6,    1
  [5] 1, 10,  20,   10,    1
  [6] 1, 15,  50,   50,   15,    1

  [9] 1, 36, 336, 1176, 1764, 1176, 336, 36, 1;
  ...
For all n, 12...n (1 block) and 1|2|3|...|n (n blocks) are noncrossing set partitions.
Example of umbral representation:
  A007318(5,k)=[1,5/1,5*4/(2*1),...,1]=(1,5,10,10,5,1),
  so A001263(5,k)={1,b(5)/b(1),b(5)*b(4)/[b(2)*b(1)],...,1}
  = [1,30/2,30*20/(6*2),...,1]=(1,15,50,50,15,1).
  First = last term = b.(5!)/[b.(0!)*b.(5!)]= 1. - _Tom Copeland_, Sep 21 2011
Row polynomials and diagonal sequences of A103371: n = 4,  P(4, x) = 1 + 6*x + 6*x^2 + x^3, and the o.g.f. of fifth diagonal is G(4, x) = 5* P(4, x)/(1 - x)^9, namely [5, 75, 525, ...]. See a comment above. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Jul 31 2017

Relation with Jacobi polynomials of parameter (1,1):
Row n+1 generating polynomial equals 1/(n+1)*x*(1-x)^n*Jacobi_P(n,1,1,(1+x)/(1-x)). It follows that the zeros of the Narayana polynomials are all real and nonpositive, as noted above. O.g.f for column k+2: 1/(k+1) * y^(k+2)/(1-y)^(k+3) * Jacobi_P(k,1,1,(1+y)/(1-y)). Cf. A008459.
T(n+1,k) is the number of walks of n unit steps on the square lattice (i.e., each step in the direction either up (U), down (D), right (R) or left (L)) starting from the origin and finishing at lattice points on the x axis and which remain in the upper half-plane y >= 0 [Guy]. For example, T(4,3) = 6 counts the six walks RRL, LRR, RLR, UDL, URD and RUD, from the origin to the lattice point (1,0), each of 3 steps. Compare with tables A145596 - A145599.
Define a functional I on formal power series of the form f(x) = 1 + ax + bx^2 + ... by the following iterative process. Define inductively f^(1)(x) = f(x) and f^(n+1)(x) = f(x*f^(n)(x)) for n >= 1. Then set I(f(x)) = lim_{n -> infinity} f^(n)(x) in the x-adic topology on the ring of formal power series; the operator I may also be defined by I(f(x)) := 1/x*series reversion of x/f(x).
The o.g.f. for this array is I(1 + t*x + t*x^2 + t*x^3 + ...) = 1 + t*x + (t + t^2)*x^2 + (t + 3*t^2 + t^3)*x^3 + ... = 1/(1 - x*t/(1 - x/(1 - x*t/(1 - x/(1 - ...))))) (as a continued fraction). Cf. A108767, A132081 and A141618. (End)

Consequently, with H(x,t) = 1/ (dG(x,t)/dx) = (t+(1+t)*x+x^2)^2 / (t-x^2), the n-th Narayana polynomial in t is given by (1/n!)*((H(x,t)*D_x)^n)x evaluated at x=0, i.e., F(x,t) = exp(x*H(u,t)*D_u)u, evaluated at u = 0.

With F(x,t) = {1-(1-t)*x-sqrt[1-2*(1+t)*x+[(t-1)*x]^2]}/2 a shifted o.g.f. in x for the Narayana polynomials in t, G(x,t)= x/[t-1+1/(1-x)] is the compositional inverse in x. Therefore, with H(x,t)=1/(dG(x,t)/dx)=[t-1+1/(1-x)]^2/{t-[x/(1-x)]^2}, (see A119900), the (n-1)-th Narayana polynomial in t is given by (1/n!)*((H(x,t)*d/dx)^n)x evaluated at x=0, i.e., F(x,t) = exp(x*H(u,t)*d/du) u, evaluated at u = 0.

T(n+3, k) is also the number of compatible k-sets of cluster variables in Fomin and Zelevinsky's cluster algebra of finite type A_n. Take a row of this triangle regarded as a polynomial in x and rewrite as a polynomial in y := x+1. The coefficients of the polynomial in y give a row of the triangle of Narayana numbers A001263. For example, x^2 + 5*x + 5 = y^2 + 3*y + 1. - Paul Boddington, Mar 07 2003

Row generating polynomials 1/(n+1)*Jacobi_P(n,1,1,2*x+1). Row n of this triangle is the f-vector of the simplicial complex dual to an associahedron of type A_n [Fomin & Reading, p. 60]. See A001263 for the corresponding array of h-vectors for associahedra of type A_n.

The general results on the convolution of the refined partition polynomials of A133437, with u_1 = 1 and u_n = -t otherwise, can be applied here to obtain results of convolutions of these polynomials. - Tom Copeland, Sep 20 2016
The signed triangle t(n, k) =(-1)^k* T(n+2, k-1), n >= 1, k = 1..n, seems to be obtainable from the partition array A111785 (in Abramowitz-Stegun order) by adding the entries corresponding to the partitions of n with the number of parts k. E.g., triangle t, row n=4: -1, (6+3) = 9, -21, 14. - Wolfdieter Lang, Mar 17 2017
The preceding conjecture by Lang is true. It is implicit in Copeland's 2011 comments in A086810 on the relations among a gf and its compositional inverse for that entry and inversion through A133437 (a differently normalized version of A111785), whose integer partitions are the same as those for A134685. (An inversion pair in Copeland's 2008 formulas below can also be used to prove the conjecture.) In addition, it follows from the relation between the inversion formula of A111785/A133437 and the enumeration of distinct faces of associahedra. See the MathOverflow link concernimg Loday and the Aguiar and Ardila reference in A133437 for proofs of the relations between the partition polynomials for inversion and enumeration of the distinct faces of the A_n associahedra, or Stasheff polytopes. - Tom Copeland, Dec 21 2017
The rows seem to give (up to sign) the coefficients in the expansion of the integer-valued polynomial (x+1)*(x+2)^2*(x+3)^2*...*(x+n)^2*(x+n+1)/(n!*(n+1)!) in the basis made of the binomial(x+i,i). - F. Chapoton, Oct 07 2022
Chapoton's observation above is correct: the precise expansion is (x+1)*(x+2)^2*(x+3)^2*...*(x+n)^2*(x+n+1)/ (n!*(n+1)!) = Sum_{k = 0..n-1} (-1)^k*T(n+2,n-k-1)*binomial(x+2*n-k,2*n-k), as can be verified using the WZ algorithm. For example, n = 4 gives (x+1)*(x+2)^2*(x+3)^2*(x+4)^2*(x+5)/(4!*5!) = 14*binomial(x+8,8) - 21*binomial(x+7,7) + 9*binomial(x+6,6) - binomial(x+5,5). - Peter Bala, Jun 24 2023

From Tom Copeland, Nov 03 2008: (Start)
Two g.f.s (f1 and f2) for A033282 and their inverses (x1 and x2) can be derived from the Drake and Barry references.
1. a: f1(x,t) = y = {1 - (2t+1) x - sqrt[1 - (2t+1) 2x + x^2]}/[2x (t+1)] = t x + (t + 2 t^2) x^2 + (t + 5 t^2 + 5 t^3) x^3 + ...
b: x1 = y/[t + (2t+1)y + (t+1)y^2] = y {1/[t/(t+1) + y] - 1/(1+y)} = (y/t) - (1+2t)(y/t)^2 + (1+ 3t + 3t^2)(y/t)^3 +...
2. a: f2(x,t) = y = {1 - x - sqrt[(1-x)^2 - 4xt]}/[2(t+1)] = (t/(t+1)) x + t x^2 + (t + 2 t^2) x^3 + (t + 5 t^2 + 5 t^3) x^4 + ...
b: x2 = y(t+1) [1- y(t+1)]/[t + y(t+1)] = (t+1) (y/t) - (t+1)^3 (y/t)^2 + (t+1)^4 (y/t)^3 + ...
c: y/x2(y,t) = [t/(t+1) + y] / [1- y(t+1)] = t/(t+1) + (1+t) y + (1+t)^2 y^2 + (1+t)^3 y^3 + ...
x2(y,t) can be used along with the Lagrange inversion for an o.g.f. (A133437) to generate A033282 and show that A133437 is a refinement of A033282, i.e., a refinement of the f-polynomials of the associahedra, the Stasheff polytopes.
y/x2(y,t) can be used along with the indirect Lagrange inversion (A134264) to generate A033282 and show that A134264 is a refinement of A001263, i.e., a refinement of the h-polynomials of the associahedra.
f1[x,t](t+1) gives a generator for A088617.
f1[xt,1/t](t+1) gives a generator for A060693, with inverse y/[1 + t + (2+t) y + y^2].
f1[x(t-1),1/(t-1)]t gives a generator for A001263, with inverse y/[t + (1+t) y + y^2].
The unsigned coefficients of x1(y t,t) are A074909, reverse rows of A135278. (End)
G.f.: 1/(1-x*y-(x+x*y)/(1-x*y/(1-(x+x*y)/(1-x*y/(1-(x+x*y)/(1-x*y/(1-.... (continued fraction). - Paul Barry, Feb 06 2009
Let h(t) = (1-t)^2/(1+(u-1)*(1-t)^2) = 1/(u + 2*t + 3*t^2 + 4*t^3 + ...), then a signed (n-1)-th row polynomial of A033282 is given by u^(2n-1)*(1/n!)*((h(t)*d/dt)^n) t, evaluated at t=0, with initial n=2. The power series expansion of h(t) is related to A181289 (cf. A086810). - Tom Copeland, Sep 06 2011

Mirror image of triangle A133336. - Philippe Deléham, Dec 10 2008
From Tom Copeland, Oct 09 2011: (Start)
With polynomials
P(0,t) = 0
P(1,t) = 1
P(2,t) = t
P(3,t) = t + 2 t^2
P(4,t) = t + 5 t^2 +  5 t^3
P(5,t) = t + 9 t^2 + 21 t^3 + 14 t^4
The o.g.f. A(x,t) = {1+x-sqrt[(1-x)^2-4xt]}/[2(1+t)] (see Drake et al.).
B(x,t)= x-t x^2/(1-x)= x-t(x^2+x^3+x^4+...) is the comp. inverse in x.
Let h(x,t) = 1/(dB/dx) = (1-x)^2/(1+(1+t)*x*(x-2)) = 1/(1-t(2x+3x^2+4x^3+...)), an o.g.f. in x for row polynomials in t of A181289. Then P(n,t) is given by (1/n!)(h(x,t)*d/dx)^n x, evaluated at x=0, A = exp(x*h(y,t)*d/dy) y, eval. at y=0, and dA/dx = h(A(x,t),t). These results are a special case of A133437 with u(x,t) = B(x,t), i.e., u_1=1 and (u_n)=-t for n > 1. See A001003 for t = 1. (End)
Let U(x,t) = [A(x,t)-x]/t, then U(x,0) = -dB(x,t)/dt and U satisfies dU/dt = UdU/dx, the inviscid Burgers' equation (Wikipedia), also called the Hopf equation (see Buchstaber et al.). Also U(x,t) = U(A(x,t),0) = U(x+tU,0) since U(x,0) = [x-B(x,t)]/t. - Tom Copeland, Mar 12 2012
Diagonals of A132081 are essentially rows of this sequence. - Tom Copeland, May 08 2012

T(n,k) is the number of small Schröder n-paths (lattice paths from (0,0) to (2n,0) using steps U=(1,1), F=(2,0), D=(1,-1) with no F step on the x-axis) that has exactly k U steps.
T(n,k) is the number of Schröder trees (plane rooted tree where each internal node has at least two children) with exactly n+1 leaves and k internal nodes. (End)

Row n has n - 1 terms. Row sums yield the Fine numbers (A000957).
Related to the number of certain sets of non-crossing partitions for the root system A_n (p. 11, Athanasiadis and Savvidou). - Tom Copeland, Oct 19 2014
T(n,k) is the number of permutations pi of [n-1] with k - 1 descents such that s(pi) avoids the patterns 132, 231, and 312, where s is West's stack-sorting map. - Colin Defant, Sep 16 2018
The absolute values of the polynomials at -1 and j (cube root of 1) seem to be given by A126120 and A005043. - F. Chapoton, Nov 16 2021
Don Knuth observes that this sequence also arrises from the enumeration of restricted max-and-min-closed relations, only there it appears as an array read by antidiagonals: see the Knuth "Notes" link and A372068. Knuth also gives a formula expressing the array A372368 in terms of this array. He also reports that there is strong experimental evidence that the n-th term of row m in this array is a polynomial of degree 2*m-2 in n. - N. J. A. Sloane, May 12 2024

			T(4, 2) = 4 because we have UU*DDUU*DD, UU*DUU*DDD, UUU*DDU*DD and UUU*DU*DDD, where U = (1, 1), D = (1,-1) and * indicates the peaks.

With offset 0 for A108263 and offset 1 for A132081, row polynomials of this entry P(n, x) = Sum_{i} A108263(n, i)*x^i*(1 + x)^(n - 2*i) = Sum_{i} A132081(n - 2, i)*x^i*(1 + x)^(n - 2*i).
E.g., P(4, x) = 1*x*(1 + x)^(4 - 2*1) + 2*x^2*(1 + x)^(4 - 2*2) = x + 4*x^2 + x^3.
Equivalently, let Q(n, x) be the row polynomials of A108263. Then P(n, x) = (1 + x)^n * Q(n, x/(1 + x)^2).
E.g., P(4, x) = (1 + x)^4 * (x/(1 + x)^2 + 2 * (x/(1 + x)^2)^2).

Define a functional I on formal power series of the form f(x) = 1 + ax + bx^2 + ... by the following iterative process. Define inductively f^(1)(x) = f(x) and f^(n+1)(x) = f(x*f^(n)(x)) for n >= 1. Then set I(f(x)) = Limit_{n -> oo} f^(n)(x) in the x-adic topology on the ring of formal power series; the operator I may also be defined by I(f(x)) := 1/x*series reversion of x/f(x).
The o.g.f. for the array of Narayana numbers A001263 is I(1 + t*x + t*x^2 + t*x^3 + ...) = 1 + t*x + (t + t^2)*x^2 + (t + 3*t^2 + t^3)*x^3 + ... . The o.g.f. for the current array is IoI(1 + t*x + t*x^2 + t*x^3 + ...) = 1 + t*x + (t + 2*t^2)*x^2 + (t + 6*t^2 + 5*t^3)*x^3 + ... . Cf. A132081 and A141618. Alternatively, the o.g.f. of this array can be obtained from a single application of I, namely, form I(1 + t*x^2 + t*x^4 + t*x^6 + ...) = 1 + t*x^2 + (t + 2*t^2)*x^4 + (t + 6*t^2 + 5*t^3)*x^6 + ... and then replace x by sqrt(x). This is a particular case of the general result that forming the n-fold composition I^(n)(f(x)) and then replacing x with x^n produces the same result as I(f(x^n)). (End)
O.g.f. is series reversion with respect to x of x/((1+x)*(1+x*u)^2). Cf. A173020. - Peter Bala, Sep 12 2012
