Rows of A013610 reversed. - Michael Somos, Feb 14 2002
Row sums are powers of 4 (A000302), antidiagonal sums are A006190 (a(n) = 3*a(n-1) + a(n-2)). - Gerald McGarvey, May 17 2005
Triangle of coefficients in expansion of (3+x)^n.
Also: Pure Galton board of scheme (3,1). Also: Multiplicity (number) of pairs of n-dimensional binary vectors with dot product (overlap) k. There are 2^n = A000079(n) binary vectors of length n and 2^(2n) = 4^n = A000302(n) different pairs to form dot products k = Sum_{i=1..n} v[i]*u[i] between these, 0 <= k <= n. (Since dot products are symmetric, there are only 2^n*(2^n-1)/2 different non-ordered pairs, actually.) - R. J. Mathar, Mar 17 2006
Mirror image of A013610. - Zerinvary Lajos, Nov 25 2007
T(i,j) is the number of i-permutations of 4 objects a,b,c,d, with repetition allowed, containing j a's. - Zerinvary Lajos, Dec 21 2007
The antidiagonals of the sequence formatted as a square array (see Examples section) and summed with alternating signs gives a bisection of Fibonacci sequence, A001906. Example: 81-(27-1)=55. Similar rule applied to rows gives A000079. - Mark Dols, Sep 01 2009
Triangle T(n,k), read by rows, given by (3,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,...)DELTA (1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,...) where DELTA is the operator defined in A084938. - Philippe Deléham, Oct 09 2011
T(n,k) = binomial(n,k)*3^(n-k), the number of subsets of [2n] with exactly k symmetric pairs, where elements i and j of [2n] form a symmetric pair if i+j=2n+1. Equivalently, if n couples attend a (ticketed) event that offers door prizes, then the number of possible prize distributions that have exactly k couples as dual winners is T(n,k). - Dennis P. Walsh, Feb 02 2012
T(n,k) is the number of ordered pairs (A,B) of subsets of {1,2,...,n} such that the intersection of A and B contains exactly k elements. For example, T(2,1) = 6 because we have ({1},{1}); ({1},{1,2}); ({2},{2}); ({2},{1,2}); ({1,2},{1}); ({1,2},{2}). Sum_{k=0..n} T(n,k)*k = A002697(n) (see comment there by Ross La Haye). - Geoffrey Critzer, Sep 04 2013
Also the convolution triangle of A000244. - Peter Luschny, Oct 09 2022

Examples

			Example: n = 3 offers 2^3 = 8 different binary vectors (0,0,0), (0,0,1), ..., (1,1,0), (1,1,1). a(3,2) = 9 of the 2^4 = 64 pairs have overlap k = 2: (0,1,1)*(0,1,1) = (1,0,1)*(1,0,1) = (1,1,0)*(1,1,0) = (1,1,1)*(1,1,0) = (1,1,1)*(1,0,1) = (1,1,1)*(0,1,1) = (0,1,1)*(1,1,1) = (1,0,1)*(1,1,1) = (1,1,0)*(1,1,1) = 2.
For example, T(2,1)=6 since there are 6 subsets of {1,2,3,4} that have exactly 1 symmetric pair, namely, {1,4}, {2,3}, {1,2,3}, {1,2,4}, {1,3,4}, and {2,3,4}.

a(n,k) = 3*a(n-1,k) + a(n-1,k-1) - R. J. Mathar, Mar 17 2006
From the formalism of A133314, the e.g.f. for the row polynomials of A027465 is exp(x*t)*exp(3x). The e.g.f. for the row polynomials of the inverse matrix is exp(x*t)*exp(-3x). p iterates of the matrix give the matrix with e.g.f. exp(x*t)*exp(p*3x). The results generalize for 3 replaced by any number. - Tom Copeland, Aug 18 2008

a(n) is the Parker sequence for the automorphism group of the limit of the class of oriented graphs; a(n) counts the finite circulant structures in that class. - N-E. Fahssi, Feb 18 2008
Complete sequence: every positive integer is the sum of members of this sequence. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Jul 19 2012
Conjecture: a(n+1) is the number of distinct subsets S of {0,1,2,...,n} such that the sumset S+S does not contain n. - Michael Chu, Oct 05 2021. Andrew Howroyd, Nov 20 2021: The conjecture is true: If there are m pairs of numbers that add to n then inclusion/exclusion gives sum(k=0, m, binomial(m,k)*(-1)^k*2^(2*m-2*k)) as the number of sets that don't contain any of those pairs which equals 3^m. For even n , n/2 cannot be included in any set.
Also, number of walks of length n in the graph K_{1,3} (the graph with edges {1,2}, {1,3}, {1,4}) starting at one of the degree 1 vertices. - Sean A. Irvine, May 30 2025

Examples

The triangle pertaining to this sequence has the property that every row, every column and every diagonal contains a nontrivial geometric progression. More interestingly every line joining any two elements contains a nontrivial geometric progression. - Amarnath Murthy, Jan 02 2002
Kappraff states (pp. 148-149): "I shall refer to this as Nicomachus' table since an identical table of numbers appeared in the Arithmetic of Nicomachus of Gerasa (circa 150 A.D.)" The table was rediscovered during the Italian Renaissance by Leon Battista Alberti, who incorporated the numbers in dimensions of his buildings and in a system of musical proportions. Kappraff states "Therefore a room could exhibit a 4:6 or 6:9 ratio but not 4:9. This ensured that ratios of these lengths would embody musical ratios". - Gary W. Adamson, Aug 18 2003
After Nichomachus and Alberti several Renaissance authors described this table. See for instance Pierre de la Ramée in 1569 (facsimile of a page of his Arithmetic Treatise in Latin in the links section). - Olivier Gérard, Jul 04 2013
The triangle sums, see A180662 for their definitions, link Nicomachus's table with eleven different sequences, see the crossrefs. It is remarkable that these eleven sequences can be described with simple elegant formulas. The mirror of this triangle is A175840. - Johannes W. Meijer, Sep 22 2010
The diagonal sums Sum_{k} T(n - k, k) give A167762(n + 2). - Michael Somos, May 28 2012
Where d(n) is the divisor count function, then d(T(i,j)) = A003991, the rows of which sum to the tetrahedral numbers A000292(n+1). For example, the sum of the divisors of row 4 of this triangle (i = 4), gives d(16) + d(24) + d(36) + d(54) + d(81) = 5 + 8 + 9 + 8 + 5 = 35 = A000292(5). In fact, where p and q are distinct primes, the aforementioned relationship to the divisor function and tetrahedral numbers can be extended to any triangle of numbers in which the i-th row is of form {p^(i-j)*q^j, 0<=j<=i}; i >= 0 (e.g., A003593, A003595). - Raphie Frank, Nov 18 2012, corrected Dec 07 2012
Sequence (or tree) generated by these rules: 1 is in S, and if x is in S, then 2*x and 3*x are in S, and duplicates are deleted as they occur; see A232559. - Clark Kimberling, Nov 28 2013
Partial sums of rows produce Stirling numbers of the 2nd kind: A000392(n+2) = Sum_{m=1..(n^2+n)/2} a(m). - Fred Daniel Kline, Sep 22 2014
A permutation of A003586. - L. Edson Jeffery, Sep 22 2014
Form a word of length i by choosing a (possibly empty) word on alphabet {0,1} then concatenating a word of length j on alphabet {2,3,4}. T(i,j) is the number of such words. - Geoffrey Critzer, Jun 23 2016
Form of Zorach additive triangle (see A035312) where each number is sum of west and northwest numbers, with the additional condition that each number is GCD of the two numbers immediately below it. - Michel Lagneau, Dec 27 2018

a(n+3) is the number of words of length n defined on 4 letters where one of the letters is used at most once. - Enrique Navarrete, Mar 14 2024

Examples

			For n=3, the total number of parts is (3+2)3^(3+2-4)=(5)(3)=15 (each part indicated by "[]"): [3]; [2,1]; [1,2]; [2],[1]; [1],[2]; [1,1,1]; [1,1],[1]; [1],[1,1]; [1],[1],[1]. Note that these 15 parts are arranged into 9 = A000244(3-1)compositions. - _Gregory L. Simay_, May 27 2017

For n >= 3, a(n) is equal to the number of functions f: {1,2,...,n-1} -> {1,2,3} such that Im(f) contains 2 fixed elements. - Aleksandar M. Janjic and Milan Janjic, Mar 08 2007
Let P(A) be the power set of an n-element set A. Then a(n+1) = the number of pairs of elements {x,y} of P(A) for which x and y are intersecting and for which either x is a proper subset of y or y is a proper subset of x. - Ross La Haye, Jan 02 2008
Let P(A) be the power set of an n-element set A and R be a relation on P(A) such that for all x, y of P(A), xRy if x is not a subset of y and y is not a subset of x and x and y are disjoint. Then a(n+1) = |R|. - Ross La Haye, Mar 19 2009
Let P(A) be the power set of an n-element set A and R be a relation on P(A) such that for all x, y of P(A), xRy if either 0) x is a proper subset of y or y is a proper subset of x, or 1) x is not a subset of y and y is not a subset of x and x and y are disjoint. Then a(n+2) = |R|. - Ross La Haye, Mar 19 2009
In the terdragon curve, a(n) is the number of triple-visited points in expansion level n. The first differences of this sequence (A056182) are the number of enclosed unit triangles since on segment expansion each unit triangle forms a new triple-visited point, and existing triple-visited points are unchanged. - Kevin Ryde, Oct 20 2020
a(n+1) is the number of ternary strings of length n that contain at least one 0 and one 1; for example, for n=3, a(4)=12 since the strings are the 3 permutations of 100, the 3 permutations of 110, and the 6 permutations of 210. - Enrique Navarrete, Aug 13 2021
From Sanjay Ramassamy, Dec 23 2021: (Start)
a(n+1) is the number of topological configurations of n points and n lines where the points lie at the vertices of a convex cyclic n-gon and the lines are the perpendicular bisectors of its sides.
a(n+1) is the number of 2n-tuples composed of n 0's and n 1's which have an interlacing signature. The signature of a 2n-tuple (v_1,...,v_{2n}) is the n-tuple (s_1,...,s_n) defined by s_i=v_i+v_{i+n}. The signature is called interlacing if after deleting the 1's, there are letters remaining and the remaining 0's and 2's are alternating. (End)
a(n+1) is the number of pairs (A,B) where B is a nonempty subset of {1,2,...,n} and A is a nonempty proper subset of B. If either "nonempty" or "proper" is omitted then see A001047. If "nonempty" and "proper" are omitted then see A000244. - Manfred Boergens, Mar 28 2023
a(n) is the number of (n-1) X (n-1) nilpotent Boolean relation matrices with rank equal to 1. a(n) = A060867(n-1) - A005061(n-1) (since every rank 1 matrix is either idempotent or nilpotent). - Geoffrey Critzer, Jul 13 2023
For odd n > 3, a(n) is also the number of minimum vertex colorings in the (n-1)-prism graph. - Eric W. Weisstein, Mar 05 2024

This is a composite of two earlier sequences contributed at different times by N. J. A. Sloane and by Reinhard Zumkeller, Mar 05 2005. Christian G. Bower extended them and found that they agreed for at least 512 terms. The proof that they were identical was found by Ralf Stephan, Jun 13 2005, based on the fact that they were both 3-regular sequences.

The PARI program gives any row k and any n-th term for this triangular array in square or right triangle array format. - Randall L Rathbun, Jan 20 2002
Triangle T(n,k), 0 <= k <= n, read by rows given by: T(0,0)=1, T(n,k)=0 if k < 0 or if k > n, T(n,0) = 2*T(n-1,0) + T(n-1,1), T(n,k) = T(n-1,k-1) + T(n-1,k) + T(n-1,k+1) for k >= 1. - Philippe Deléham, Mar 27 2007
This triangle belongs to the family of triangles defined by: T(0,0)=1, T(n,k)=0 if k < 0 or if k > n, T(n,0) = x*T(n-1,0) + T(n-1,1), T(n,k) = T(n-1,k-1) + y*T(n-1,k) + T(n-1,k+1) for k >= 1. Other triangles arise by choosing different values for (x,y): (0,0) -> A053121; (0,1) -> A089942; (0,2) -> A126093; (0,3) -> A126970; (1,0)-> A061554; (1,1) -> A064189; (1,2) -> A039599; (1,3) -> A110877; (1,4) -> A124576; (2,0) -> A126075; (2,1) -> A038622; (2,2) -> A039598; (2,3) -> A124733; (2,4) -> A124575; (3,0) -> A126953; (3,1) -> A126954; (3,2) -> A111418; (3,3) -> A091965; (3,4) -> A124574; (4,3) -> A126791; (4,4) -> A052179; (4,5) -> A126331; (5,5) -> A125906. - Philippe Deléham, Sep 25 2007
Triangle read by rows = partial sums of A064189 terms starting from the right. - Gary W. Adamson, Oct 25 2008
Column k has e.g.f. exp(x)*(Bessel_I(k,2x)+Bessel_I(k+1,2x)). - Paul Barry, Mar 08 2011

Formula

a(n, k) = a(n-1, k-1) + a(n-1, k) + a(n-1, k+1) for k>0, a(n, k) = 2*a(n-1, k) + a(n-1, k+1) for k=0.
Riordan array ((sqrt(1-2x-3x^2)+3x-1)/(2x(1-3x)),(1-x-sqrt(1-2x-3x^2))/(2x)). Inverse of Riordan array ((1-x)/(1+x+x^2),x/(1+x+x^2)). First column is A005773(n+1). Row sums are 3^n (A000244). If L=A038622, then L*L' is the Hankel matrix for A005773(n+1), where L' is the transpose of L. - Paul Barry, Sep 18 2006
T(n,k) = GegenbauerC(n-k,-n+1,-1/2) + GegenbauerC(n-k-1,-n+1,-1/2). In this form also the missing first column of the triangle 1,1,1,3,7,19,... (cf. A002426) can be computed. - Peter Luschny, May 12 2016
