Examples
Triangle T(n,k) (with rows n >= 0 and columns k >= 0) starts as follows: 1; 1, 1, 1; 1, 2, 2, 2, 1; 1, 3, 4, 5, 4, 3, 1; 1, 4, 7, 10, 11, 10, 7, 4, 1; 1, 5, 11, 18, 24, 26, 24, 18, 11, 5, 1; 1, 6, 16, 30, 46, 58, 63, 58, 46, 30, 16, 6, 1; 1, 7, 22, 47, 81, 116, 143, 158, 143, 116, 81, 47, 22, 7, 1; ... Below are the 21 (3,3) Fibonaccian strings (organized by rank level) that comprise the (3,3)rd symmetric Fibonaccian lattice: rank=6: (1,4,7) rank=5: (1,4,8) (1,5,7) (2,4,7) rank=4: (1,4,9) (1,5,8) (2,4,8) (2,5,7) rank=3: (1,5,9) (1,6,8) (2,4,9) (2,5,8) (3,5,7) rank=2: (1,6,9) (2,5,9) (2,6,8) (3,5,8) rank=1: (2,6,9) (3,5,9) (3,6,8) rank=0: (3,6,9) The triples (3,4,7), (3,4,8), (3,4,9), (1,6,7), (2,6,7), and (3,6,7) are disallowed as (3,3) Fibonaccian strings since each contains consecutive integers. In the (3,5)th symmetric Fibonaccian lattice, rank level 8 consists of exactly the (3,5) Fibonaccian strings whose coordinate sum is 3*(5*(5+1)/2)-8=37: (1,4,7,10,15), (1,4,7,11,14), (1,4,8,10,14), (1,4,8,11,13), (1,5,7,10,14), (1,5,7,11,13), (1,5,8,10,13), (2,4,7,10,14), (2,4,7,11,13), (2,4,8,10,13), and (2,5,7,10,13), confirming that T(5,8)=11.

Formula
With T(0,0)=1, then T(n,k) = T(n-1,k-2) + T(n-1,k-1) + T(n-1,k) - T(n-2,k-2) for n >= 1 and 0 <= k <= 2*n, understanding T(i,j) to be zero when j < 0 or j > 2*i. That the preceding recurrence holds is equivalent to the identity p(n,x) = (1+x+x^2)*p(n-1,x) - x^2*p(n-2,x) for n >= 1, where p(0,x)=1 and p(-1,x) is taken to be 0.
