T(n,k) is the number of length n*k binary words of n consecutive blocks of length k, respectively, one of the blocks having exactly k letters 1, and the other having exactly one letter 0. First column follows from the next definition.
In Kauffman's language, T(n,k) is the total number of Jordan trails that are obtained by placing state markers at the crossings of the Pretzel universe P(k, k, ..., k) having n tangles, of k half-twists respectively. In other words, T(n,k) is the number of ways of splitting the crossings of the Pretzel knot shadow P(k, k, ..., k) such that the final diagram is a single Jordan curve. The aforementionned binary words encode these operations by assigning each tangle a length k binary words with the adequate choice for splitting the crossings.
Columns are linear recurrence sequences with signature (2*k, -k^2).
