Comments

Doche and Mendès France form polynomials P_n(y) = Sum_{j=0..2^n-1} GRS(j) * y^wt(j) and here row n is the coefficients of P_n starting from the constant term, so P_n(y) = Sum_{k=0..n} T(n,k)*y^k. They conjecture that the number of real roots of P_n is A285869(n).

Row sum n is the sum of GRS terms from j = 0 to 2^n-1 inclusive, which Brillhart and Morton (Beispiel 6 page 129) show is A020986(2^n-1) = 2^ceiling(n/2) = A060546(n). The same follows by substituting y=1 in the P_n recurrence or the generating function.
