FORMULA
Recurrence: 2nT(n,k) = [k(k+1)+2n-2]T(n-1,k)+2[(k-1)(2n-k-1)+1]T(n-1,k-1)+[(2n-k)(2n-k+1)+2n-2]T(n-1,k-2) (k>=1, n>=2) (see Eq. (2.1) in the Guo-Zeng paper; see first Maple program).
Generating polynomial of row n is P(n,t) = (1 - t)^{2n+1}*Sum(C(j(j+1)/2 + n - 1, n)*t^j, j=0..oo) (see Eq. (2.2) in the Guo-Zeng paper; see 2nd Maple program).
EXAMPLE
T(3,2)=3 because we have 215634, 341265, and 351624.

MAPLE
T := proc (n, k) if k <= 0 or n <= 0 then 0 elif n = 1 and k = 1 then 1 elif 2*n <= k then 0 else ((1/2)*(k*(k+1)+2*n-2)*T(n-1, k)+(1/2)*(2*(k-1)*(2*n-k-1)+2)*T(n-1, k-1)+(1/2)*((2*n-k)*(2*n-k+1)+2*n-2)*T(n-1, k-2))/n end if end proc: for n to 8 do seq(T(n, k), k = 1 .. 2*n-1) end do; # end of program
for n to 8 do P[n] := sort(expand(simplify((1-t)^(2*n+1)*(sum(binomial((1/2)*i*(i+1)+n-1, n)*t^i, i = 0 .. infinity))))) end do: for n to 8 do seq(coeff(P[n], t, j), j = 1 .. 2*n-1) end do; # end of program
