T(n,k) is the number of lattice paths from (0,0) to (n,k) using steps (0,1), (1,0), (2,0). - Joerg Arndt, Jun 30 2011
T(n,k) is the number of lattice paths of length n, starting from the origin and ending at (n,k), using horizontal steps H=(1,0), up steps U=(1,1) and down steps D=(1,-1), never containing UUU, DD, HD. For instance, for n=4 and k=2, we have the paths; HHUU, HUHU, HUUH, UHHU, UHUH, UUHH, UUDU, UDUU, UUUD. - Emanuele Munarini, Mar 15 2011
Row sums form Pell numbers A000129, T(n,0) forms Fibonacci numbers A000045, T(n,1) forms A001629. T(n+k,n-k) is polynomial sequence of degree k.
As a Riordan array, this is (1/(1-x-x^2),x/(1-x-x^2)). An interesting factorization is (1/(1-x^2),x/(1-x^2))*(1/(1-x),x/(1-x)) [abs(A049310) times A007318]. Diagonal sums are the Jacobsthal numbers A001045(n+1). - Paul Barry, Jul 28 2005
T(n,k) = T'(n+1,k+1), T' given by [0, 1, 1, -1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, ...] DELTA [1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, ...] where DELTA is the operator defined in A084938. - Philippe Deléham, Nov 19 2005
This triangle may also be obtained from the coefficients of the Morgan-Voyce polynomials defined by: Mv(x, n) = (x + 1)*Mv(x, n - 1) + Mv(x, n - 2). - Roger L. Bagula, Apr 09 2008
Row sums are A000129. - Roger L. Bagula, Apr 09 2008
Absolute value of coefficients of the characteristic polynomial of tridiagonal matrices with 1's along the main diagonal, and i's along the superdiagonal and the subdiagonal (where i=sqrt(-1), see Mathematica program). - John M. Campbell, Aug 23 2011
A037027 is jointly generated with A122075 as an array of coefficients of polynomials v(n,x): initially, u(1,x)=v(1,x)=1; for n>1, u(n,x)=u(n-1,x)+(x+1)*v(n-1)x and v(n,x)=u(n-1,x)+x*v(n-1,x). See the Mathematica section at A122075. - Clark Kimberling, Mar 05 2012

Row n, for n>=0, shows the coefficients of the polynomial u(n) = c(0) + c(1)*x + ... + c(n)*x^n which is the denominator of the n-th convergent of the continued fraction [x+1, x+1, x+1, ...]; see A230000. - Clark Kimberling, Nov 13 2013
T(n,k) is the number of ternary words of length n having k letters 2 and avoiding a runs of odd length for the letter 0. - Milan Janjic, Jan 14 2017
Let T(m, n, k) be an m-bonacci Pascal's triangle, where T(m, n, 0) gives the values of F(m, n), the n-th m-bonacci number, and T(m, n, k) gives the values for the k-th convolution of F(m, n). Then the classic Pascal triangle is T(1, n, k) and this sequence is T(2, n, k). T(m, n, k) is the number of compositions of n using only the positive integers 1, 1' and 2 through m, with the part 1' used exactly k times. G.f. for k-th column of T(m, n, k): x/(1 - x - x^2 - ... - x^m)^k. The row sum for T(m, n, k) is the number of compositions of n using only the positive integers 1, 1' and 2 through m. G.f. for row sum of T(m, n, k): 1/(1 - 2x - x^2 - ... - x^m). - Gregory L. Simay, Jul 24 2021

FORMULA
T(n, m) = T'(n-1, m) + T'(n-2, m) + T'(n-1, m-1), where T'(n, m) = T(n, m) for n >= 0 and 0< = m <= n and T'(n, m) = 0 otherwise.
G.f.: 1/(1 - y - y*z - y^2).
G.f. for k-th column: x/(1-x-x^2)^k.
