Comments

Empty external nodes are counted in determining the height of a search tree.

T(n,k) is defined for n,k >= 0. The triangle contains only the positive terms. Terms not shown are zero.

Row sums give A000108.

Column sums give A001699.

Main diagonal gives A011782.

T(n+3,n+2) gives A014480.

T(n,max(0,A000523(n)+1)) = A328349(n).

Programs

Maple

g:= n-> `if`(n=0, 0, ilog2(n)+1):
b:= proc(n, h) option remember; `if`(n=0, 1, `if`(n<2^h,
      add(b(j-1, h-1)*b(n-j, h-1), j=1..n), 0))
    end:
T:= (n, k)-> b(n, k)-`if`(k>0, b(n, k-1), 0):
seq(seq(T(n, k), k=g(n)..n), n=0..12);

Mathematica

g[n_] := If[n == 0, 0, Floor@Log[2, n]+1];
b[n_, h_] := b[n, h] = If[n == 0, 1, If[n < 2^h,
     Sum[b[j - 1, h - 1]*b[n - j, h - 1], {j, 1, n}], 0]];
T[n_, k_] := b[n, k] - If[k > 0, b[n, k - 1], 0];
Table[Table[T[n, k], {k, g[n], n}], {n, 0, 12}] // Flatten (* Jean-François Alcover, Feb 08 2021, after Alois P. Heinz *)

Formula

Sum_{k=0..n} k * T(n,k) = A335921(n).

Sum_{n=k..2^k-1} n * T(n,k) = A335922(k).
