COMMENTS
Compare the definition of U_n(x) with the definition of the Dirichlet kernel.
U_n(x) is defined as sin((n+1)arccos(x))/sin(arccos(x)).
U_n(x) is a polynomial in x with integer coefficients for all n >=0.
The initial term is U_0(0).
The triangle is given here as U_0(0), U_1(0), U_1(1), U_2(0), U_2(1), U(2)_(2), U_3(0),....
FORMULA
The polynomials can be computed with U_{n+1}(x) = 2xU_n(x) - U_{n-1}(x), U_{n+1}(x) = ((U_n(x))^2-1)/U_{n-1)(x), where in each case U_0(x) = 1; U_1(x) = 2x.
