COMMENTS
The boustrophedon transform {t} of a sequence {s} is given by t_n = Sum_{k=0..n} T(n,k)*s(k). Triangle may be called the boustrophedon triangle.
The 'signed version' of the triangle is the exponential Riordan array [sech(x)+tanh(x), x]. - Peter Luschny, Jan 24 2009
Up to signs, the matrix is self-inverse: T^(-1)(n,k) = (-1)^(n+k)*T(n,k). - R. J. Mathar, Mar 15 2013

FORMULA
Sum_{k>=0} T(n, k) = A000667(n).
Sum_{k>=0} T(2n, 2k) = A000795(n).
Sum_{k>=0} T(2n, 2k+1) = A009747(n).
Sum_{k>=0} T(2n+1, 2k) = A003719(n).
Sum_{k>=0} T(2n+1, 2k+1) = A002084(n).
Sum_{k>=0} T(n, 2k) = A062272(n).
Sum_{k>=0} T(n, 2k+1) = A062161(n).
Sum_{k>=0} (-1)^(k)*T(n, k) = A062162(n). - Johannes W. Meijer, Apr 20 2011
E.g.f.: exp(x*y)*(sec(x)+tan(x)). - Vladeta Jovovic, May 20 2007
T(n,k) = 2^(n-k)C(n,k)|E(n-k,1/2)+E(n-k,1)|-[n=k] where C(n,k) is the binomial coefficient, E(m,x) are the Euler polynomials and [] the Iverson bracket. - Peter Luschny, Jan 24 2009

A109449(n, 0) = A000111(n), approx. round(2^(n + 2) * n! / Pi^(n + 1)).
A109449(n, n - 1) = n.
A109449(n, n) = 1.
For n > 0, k > 0: A109449(n, k) = A109449(n - 1, k - 1) * n / k. (End)

Let p_n(x) = Sum_{k=0..n} Sum_{v=0..k} (-1)^v C(k,v)F(k)(x+v+1)^n, where F(0)=1 and for k>0 F(k)=-1 + s_k 2^floor((k-1)/2), s_k is 0 if k mod 8 in {2,6}, 1 if k mod 8 in {0,1,7} and otherwise -1. T(n,k) are the absolute values of the coefficients of these polynomials.
Another way to express the polynomials p_n(x) is
p_n(x) = -x^n + Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(n,k) Euler(k)((x+1)^(n-k)+x^(n-k)). (End)
From Peter Bala, Jan 26 2011: (Start)
An explicit formula for the n-th row polynomial is
x^n + i*Sum_{k=1..n}((1+i)/2)^(k-1)*Sum_{j=0..k} (-1)^j*binomial(k,j)*(x+i*j)^n, where i = sqrt(-1). This is the triangle of connection constants between the polynomial sequences {Z(n,x+1)} and {Z(n,x)}, where Z(n,x) denotes the zigzag polynomials described in A147309.
Denote the present array by M. The first column of the array (I-x*M)^-1 is a sequence of rational functions in x whose numerator polynomials are the row polynomials of A145876 - the generalized Eulerian numbers associated with the zigzag numbers. (End)
Let skp{n}(x) denote the Swiss-Knife polynomials A153641. Then
T(n,k) = [x^(n-k)] |skp{n}(x) - skp{n}(x-1) + x^n|. - Peter Luschny, Jul 22 2012
T(n,k) = A007318(n,k) * A000111(n - k), k = 0..n. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Nov 02 2013
T(n,k) = abs(A247453(n,k)). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Sep 17 2014
