1) When sequence is read as a regular triangular array, T(n,k) is the coefficient of the k-th power in the expansion of (x^(n+1)-1)/(x-1).
2) Sequence can also be read as a uninomial array with rows of length 1, analogous to arrays of binomial, trinomial, etc., coefficients. In a q-nomial array, T(n,k) is the coefficient of the k-th power in the expansion of ((x^q -1)/(x-1))^n, and row n has a sum of q^n and a length of (q-1)*n + 1. (End)

As a lower triangular array, T is an example of the fundamental generalized factorial matrices of A133314. Multiplying each n-th diagonal by t^n gives M(t) = I/(I-t*S) = I + t*S + (t*S)^2 + ... where S is the shift operator A129184, and T = M(1). The inverse of M(t) is obtained by multiplying the first subdiagonal of T by -t and the other subdiagonals by zero, so A167374 is the inverse of T. Multiplying by t^n/n! gives exp(t*S) with inverse exp(-t*S). - Tom Copeland, Nov 10 2012
The original definition of the meter was one ten-millionth of the distance from the Earth's equator to the North Pole.

For n>=1, a(n) is the number of permutations of length n whose cyclic representations can be written in such a way that when the cycle parentheses are removed what remains is 1 through n in natural order. For example, a(4)=8 since there are exactly 8 permutations of this form, namely, (1 2 3 4), (1)(2 3 4), (1 2)(3 4), (1 2 3)(4), (1)(2)(3 4), (1)(2 3)(4), (1 2)(3)(4), and (1)(2)(3)(4). Our result follows readily by conditioning on k, the number of parentheses pairs of the form ")(" in the cyclic representation. Since there are C(n-1,k) ways to insert these in the cyclic representation and since k runs from 0 to n-1, we obtain a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n-1} C(n-1,k) = 2^(n-1). - Dennis P. Walsh, May 23 2020

Each ordinal k is defined as the set of all smaller ordinals: 0 = {}, 1 = {0}, 2 = {0,1}, etc. Since {} is the foundational element of all ordinals, the total number of times it appears grows as powers of 2. - Kyle Wyonch, Mar 30 2025

Here "standard increasing form" means the entries are increasing in each block and the blocks are arranged in increasing order of their first entries. Also number that avoid 3-1-2. - David Callan, Jul 22 2008
Let P be the partial sum operator, A000012: (1; 1,1; 1,1,1; ...) and A153463 = M, the partial sum & shift operator.

(1, a(n), a(n+1)), n >= 0, are Markoff triples (see A002559 and Robert G. Wilson v's Oct 05 2005 comment). In the Markoff tree they give one of the outer branches. Proof: a(n)*a(n+1) - 1 = A001906(2*n)^2 = (a(n+1) - a(n))^2 = a(n)^2 + a(n+1)^2 - 2*a(n)*a(n+1), thus 1^2 + a(n)^2 + a(n+1)^2 = 3*a(n)*a(n+1). - Wolfdieter Lang, Jan 30 2015

Number of sequences (e(1), ..., e(n)), 0 <= e(i) < i, such that there is no triple i < j < k with e(i) < e(j) < e(k). [Martinez and Savage, 2.12] - Eric M. Schmidt, Jul 17 2017
Number of permutations of [n] that avoid the patterns 321 and 2341. - Colin Defant, May 11 2018
The sequence solves the following problem: find all the pairs (i,j) such that i divides 1+j^2 and j divides 1+i^2. In fact, the pairs (a(n), a(n+1)), n > 0, are all the solutions. - Tomohiro Yamada, Dec 23 2018
Number of permutations in S_n whose principal order ideals in the Bruhat order are lattices (equivalently, modular, distributive, Boolean lattices). - Bridget Tenner, Jan 16 2020
From Wolfdieter Lang, Mar 30 2020: (Start)
a(n) is the upper left entry of the n-th power of the 2 X 2 tridiagonal matrix M_2 = Matrix([1,1], [1,2]) from A322602: a(n) = ((M_2)^n)[1,1].
Proof: (M_2)^2 = 3*M + 1_2 (with the 2 X 2 unit matrix 1_2) from the characteristic polynomial of M_2 (see a comment in A322602) and the Cayley-Hamilton theorem. The recurrence M^n = M*M^(n-1) leads to (M_n)^n = S(n, 3)*1_2 + S(n-a, 3)*(M - 3*1_2), for n >= 0, with S(n, 3) = F(2(n+1)) = A001906(n+1). Hence ((M_2)^n)[1,1] = S(n, 3) - 2*S(n-1, 3) = a(n) = F(2*n-1) = (1/(2*r+1))*r^(2*n-1)*(1 + (1/r^2)^(2*n-1)), with r = rho(5) = A001622 (golden ratio) (see the first Aug 31 2004 formula, using the recurrence of S(n, 3), and the Michael Somos Oct 28 2002 formula). This proves a conjecture of Gary W. Adamson in A322602.
The ratio a(n)/a(n-1) converges to r^2 = rho(5)^2 = A104457 for n -> infinity (see the a(n) formula in terms of r), which is one of the statements by Gary W. Adamson in A322602. (End)
a(n) is the number of ways to stack coins with a bottom row of n coins such that any coin not on the bottom row touches exactly two coins in the row below, and all the coins on any row are contiguous [Wilf, 2.12]. - Greg Dresden, Jun 29 2020
a(n) is the upper left entry of the (2*n)-th power of the 4 X 4 Jacobi matrix L with L(i,j)=1 if |i-j| = 1 and L(i,j)=0 otherwise. - Michael Shmoish, Aug 29 2020
All positive solutions of the indefinite binary quadratic F(1, -3, 1) := x^2 - 3*x*y + y^2, of discriminant 5, representing -1 (special Markov triples (1, y=x, z=y) if y <= z) are [x(n), y(n)] = [abs(F(2*n+1)), abs(F(2*n-1))], for n = -infinity..+infinity. (F(-n) = (-1)^(n+1)*F(n)). There is only this single family of proper solutions, and there are no improper solutions. [See also the Floor van Lamoen Nov 29 2001 comment, which uses this negative n, and my Jan 30 2015 comment.] - Wolfdieter Lang, Sep 23 2020
These are the denominators of the lower convergents to the golden ratio, tau; they are also the numerators of the upper convergents (viz. 1/1 < 3/2 < 8/5 < 21/13 < ... < tau < ... 13/8 < 5/3 < 2/1). - Clark Kimberling, Jan 02 2022
a(n+1) is the number of subgraphs of the path graph on n vertices. - Leen Droogendijk, Jun 17 2023
For n > 4, a(n+2) is the number of ways to tile this 3 x n "double-box" shape with squares and dominos (reflections or rotations are counted as distinct tilings). The double-box shape is made up of two horizontal strips of length n, connected by three vertical columns of length 3, and the center column can be located anywhere not touching the two outside columns.

a(n+1) is the number of integer sequences a_1, ..., a_n such that for any number 1 <= k <= n, (a_1 + ... + a_k)^2 = a_1^3 + ... + a_k^3. - Yifan Xie, Dec 07 2024

With interpolated zeros (1,0,1,0,2,...), counts closed walks of length n at start or end node of P_6. The sequence (0,1,0,2,...) counts walks of length n between the start and second node. - Paul Barry, Jan 26 2005
HANKEL transform of sequence and the sequence omitting a(0) is the sequence A130716. This is the unique sequence with that property. - Michael Somos, May 04 2012
From Wolfdieter Lang, Mar 30 2020: (Start)
a(n) is also the upper left entry of the n-th power of the 3 X 3 tridiagonal matrix M_3 = Matrix([1,1,0], [1,2,1], [0,1,2]) from A332602: a(n) = ((M_3)^n)[1,1].
Proof: (M_3)^n = b(n-2)*(M_3)^2 - (6*b(n-3) - b(n-4))*M_3 + b(n-3)*1_3, for n >= 0, with b(n) = A005021(n), for n >= -4. For the proof of this see a comment in A005021. Hence (M_3)^n[1,1] = 2*b(n-2) - 5*b(n-3) + b(n-4), for n >= 0. This proves the 3 X 3 part of the conjecture in A332602 by Gary W. Adamson.
The formula for a(n) given below in terms of r = rho(7) = A160389 proves that a(n)/a(n-1) converges to rho(7)^2 = A116425 = 3.2469796..., because r - 2/r = 0.6920... < 1, and r^2 - 3 = 0.2469... < 1. This limit was conjectured in A332602 by Gary W. Adamson.

In terms of the algebraic number r = rho(7) = A160389 of degree 3 the formula given by Richard Choulet becomes a(n) = (1/7)*(r)^(2*n)*(C1(r) + C2(r)*(r - 2/r)^(2*n) + C3(r)*(r^2 - 3)^(2*n)), with C1(r) = 4 - r^2, C2(r) = 1 - r + r^2, and C3 = 2 + r.
a(n) = ((M_3)^n)[1,1] = 2*b(n-2) - 5*b(n-3) + b(n-4), for n >= 0, with the 3 X 3 tridiagonal matrix M_3 = Matrix([1,1,0], [1,2,1], [0,1,2]) from A332602, and b(n) = A005021(n) (with offset n >= -4). (End)

Number of permutations in S_n avoiding both 132 and 123...k.
T(n,k) = number of rooted ordered trees on n nodes of depth <= k. Also, T(n,k) = number of {1,-1} sequences of length 2n summing to 0 with all partial sums are >=0 and <= k. Also, T(n,k) = number of closed walks of length 2n on a path of k nodes starting from (and ending at) a node of degree 1. - Mitch Harris, Mar 06 2004
Also T(n,k) = k-th coefficient in expansion of the rational function R(n), where R(1) = 1, R(n+1) = 1/(1-x*R(n)), which means also that lim(n->inf,R(n)) = g.f. of Catalan numbers (A000108) wherever it has real value (see Mansour article). - Clark Kimberling and Ralf Stephan, May 26 2004
Row n of the array gives Taylor series expansion of F_n(t)/F_{n+1}(t), where F_n(t) are the Fibonacci polynomials defined in A259475 [Kreweras, 1970]. - N. J. A. Sloane, Jul 03 2015

Number of (s(0), s(1), ..., s(2*n)) such that 0 < s(i) < 8 and |s(i) - s(i-1)| = 1 for i = 1, 2, ..., 2*n, s(0) = 1, s(2*n) = 1. - Herbert Kociemba, Jun 11 2004

Counts all paths of length (2*n), n >= 0, starting and ending at the initial node on the path graph P_7, see the Maple program. - Johannes W. Meijer, May 29 2010

From Wolfdieter Lang, Mar 27 2020: (Start)
a(n) also gives the upper left entry of the n-th power of the 4 X 4 tridiagonal matrix M_4, given in A332602: M_4 = Matrix([1,1,0,0], [1,2,1,0], [0,1,2,1], [0,0,1,2]): a(n) = (M_4)^n[1,1]. Proof from the formula for (M_4)^n, given in a comment in A094256, derived from the Cayley-Hamilton theorem, which leads to the recurrence. The formula for a(n) in terms of A094256 is given below.
For A094256(n+1)/A094256(n), like for A094829(n+1)/A094829(n), the limit for n -> infinity is rho(9)^2 = A332438 = 3.53208888..., with rho(9) = 2*cos(Pi/9) = A332437. Therefore the formula of a(n) in terms of A094256 shows that the same limit is reached for a(n+1)/a(n). See this conjecture by Gary W. Adamson in A332602.

Number of (s(0), s(1), ..., s(2n)) such that 0 < s(i) < 10 and |s(i) - s(i-1)| = 1 for i = 1,2,...,2n, s(0) = 1, s(2n) = 1. - Herbert Kociemba, Jun 14 2004
The sequence 1,2,5,14,... has g.f. 1/(1-2x-x^2/(1-2x-x^2/(1-2x-x^2/(1-2x)))) = (1-6x+10x^2-4x^3)/(1-8x+21x^2-20x^3+5x^4), and is the second binomial transform A001519 aerated. - Paul Barry, Dec 17 2009
