Previous name was: Riordan array (1, 1/(1-x)) read by rows.
Note this Riordan array would be denoted (1, x/(1-x)) by some authors.
Columns have g.f. (x/(1-x))^k. Reverse of A071919. Row sums are A011782. Antidiagonal sums are Fibonacci(n-1). Inverse as Riordan array is (1, 1/(1+x)). A097805=B*A059260*B^(-1), where B is the binomial matrix.

Given a basis composed of a sequence of polynomials p_n(x) characterized by ladder (creation / annihilation, or raising / lowering) operators defined by R p_n(x) = p_(n+1)(x) and L p_n(x) = n p_(n-1)(x) with p_0(x)=1, giving the number operator # p_n(x) = RL p_n(x) = n p_n(x), the lower triangular padded Pascal matrix Pd (A097805) serves as a matrix representation of the operator exp(R^2*L) = exp(R#) =
1) exp(x^2D) for the set x^n and
2) D^(-1) exp(t*x)D for the set x^n/n! (see A218234).

Square array a(m,n) with m,n=0,1,2,... read by off-diagonals.
a(m,n) gives the number of order-preserving functions f:{1,...,m}->{1,...,n}. Order-preserving means that x
a(n,n)=A088218(n) is the size of the semigroup O_n of all order-preserving transformations of {1,...,n}.
Read as a triangle, this sequence may be obtained by augmenting Pascal's triangle by appending the column 1,0,0,0,... on the left.

The transposed of this lower triangular Riordan matrix of the associated type T provides the transition matrix between the monomial basis {x^n}, n >= 0, and the basis {y^n}, n >= 0, with y = x/(1-x): x^0 = 1 = y^0, x^n = Sum_{m >= n} Ttrans(n,m) y^m, for n >= 1, with Ttrans(n,m) = binomial(m-1,n-1).
Therefore, if a transformation with this Riordan matrix from a sequence {a} to the sequence {b} is given by b(n) = Sum_{m=0..n} T(n, m)*a(m), with T(n, m) = binomial(n-1, m-1), for n >= 1, then Sum_{n >= 0} a(n)*x^n = Sum_{n >= 0} b(n)*y^n, with y = x/(1-x) and vice versa. This is a modified binomial transformation; the usual one belongs to the Pascal Riordan matrix A007318. (End)

Also the number of compositions of n with alternating sum k, with k ranging from -n to n in steps of 2. For example, row n = 6 counts the following compositions (empty column indicated by dot):
. (15) (24) (33) (42) (51) (6)

(2211) (3111)
(11121) (11112)
(12111) (11211)

E.g.f.: 1 + x*[e^((x+1)t)-1]/(x+1).
This padded Pascal matrix with the odd columns negated is NpdP = M*S = S^(-1)*M^(-1) = S^(-1)*M, where M(n,k) = (-1)^n A130595(n,k), the inverse Pascal matrix with the odd rows negated, S is the summation matrix A000012, the lower triangular matrix with all elements unity, and S^(-1) = A167374, a finite difference matrix. NpdP is self-inverse, i.e., (M*S)^2 = the identity matrix, and has the e.g.f. 1 - x*[e^((1-x)t)-1]/(1-x).
M = NpdP*S^(-1) follows from the well-known recursion property of the Pascal matrix, implying NpdP = M*S.
The self-inverse property of -NpdP is implied by the self-inverse relation of its embedded signed Pascal submatrix M (cf. A130595). Also see A118800 for another proof.
Let P^(-1) be A130595, the inverse Pascal matrix. Then T = A200139*P^(-1) and T^(-1) = padded P^(-1) = P*A097808*P^(-1). (End)

The partition (0) of n=0 is included. For n>0 no part 0 appears.
The first (k=0) column gives the number of partitions without odd parts, i.e., those with even parts only. See A035363.
Without the alternating zeros this becomes a triangle with columns given by the rows of the S_n(m) table shown in the Riordan reference.
From Gregory L. Simay, Oct 31 2015: (Start)
T(2n+k,k) = the number of partitions of n with parts 1..k of two kinds. If n<=k, then T(2n+k) = A000712(n), the number of partitions of n with parts of two kinds.
T(2n+k) = the convolution of A000041(n) and the number of partitions of n+k having exactly k parts.
T(2n+k) = d(n,k) where d(n,0) = p(n) and d(n,k) = d(n,k-1) + d(n-k,k-1) + d(n-2k,k-1) + ... (End)
From Emeric Deutsch, Oct 04 2016: (Start)
T(n,k) = number of partitions (p1 >= p2 >= p3 >= ...) of n having alternating sum p1 - p2 + p3 - ... = k. Example: T(5,3) = 2 because there are two partitions (3,1,1) and (4,1) of 5 with alternating sum 3.
The equidistribution of the partition statistics "alternating sum" and "total number of odd parts" follows by conjugation. (End)

The reverse-alternating sum of a partition (y_1,...,y_k) is Sum_i (-1)^(k-i) y_i. This is also (-1)^(k-1) times the sum of the even-indexed parts minus the sum of the odd-indexed parts.
Also the number of reversed integer partitions of n with alternating sum k ranging from -n to n in steps of 2.
Also the number of integer partitions of n with (-1)^(m-1) * b = k where m is the greatest part and b is the number of odd parts, with k ranging from -n to n in steps of 2.

Also number of partitions of 2*n with exactly 2 odd parts (offset 1). - Vladeta Jovovic, Jan 12 2005
Also number of transitions from one partition of n+2 to another, where a transition consists of replacing any two parts with their sum. Remove all 1' and 2' from the partition, replacing them with ((number of 2') + 1) and ((number of 1') + (number of 2') + 1); these are the two parts being summed. Number of partitions of n into parts of 2 kinds with at most 2 parts of the second kind, or of n+2 into parts of 2 kinds with exactly 2 parts of the second kind. - Franklin T.

The reverse-alternating sum of a partition (y_1,...,y_k) is Sum_i (-1)^(k-i) y_i.
Also the number of reversed integer partitions of n with alternating sum >= 0.
A formula for the reverse-alternating sum of a partition is: (-1)^(k-1) times the number of odd parts in the conjugate partition, where k is the number of parts. So a(n) is the number of integer partitions of n whose conjugate parts are all even or whose length is odd. By conjugation, this is also the number of integer partitions of n whose parts are all even or whose greatest part is odd.
All integer partitions have alternating sum >= 0, so the non-reversed version is A000041.
Is this sequence weakly increasing? In particular, is A344611(n) <= A160786(n)?

The reverse-alternating sum of a partition (y_1,...,y_k) is Sum_i (-1)^(k-i) y_i.
Also the number of reversed integer partitions of 2n with alternating sum >= 0.
The reverse-alternating sum of a partition is equal to (-1)^(k-1) times the number of odd parts in the conjugate partition, where k is the number of parts. So a(n) is the number of partitions of 2n whose conjugate parts are all even or whose length is odd. By conjugation, this is also the number of partitions of 2n whose parts are all even or whose greatest part is odd.

- reversed integer partitions of 2n with alternating sum 2;
- integer partitions of 2n with exactly two odd parts, one of which is the greatest;

A composition of n is a finite sequence of positive integers summing to n.
The alternating sum of a sequence (y_1,...,y_k) is Sum_i (-1)^(i-1) y_i.

For example, row n = 5 counts the following compositions:
  .  (32)     .  (41)   .  (5)
     (122)       (113)
     (221)       (212)
     (1121)      (311)
     (2111)
     (11111)
