An equivalence that I don't exactly understand, but must have to do with joining 
possibilities

T(n,k)=Half the number of (n+1)X(k+1) 0..2 arrays with every 2X2 subblock 
diagonal sum differing from its antidiagonal sum by more than 2

T(n,k) apparently is also the number of ways to tile a (n+2)X(k+2) rectangle 
with 1X1 and 2X2 tiles

Diagonal is A063443(n+2)
Column 1 is A001045(n+3)
Column 2 is A054854(n+2)
Column 3 is A054855(n+2)
Column 4 is A063650(n+2)
Column 5 is A063651(n+2)
Column 6 is A063652(n+2)
Column 7 is A063653(n+2)
Column 8 is A063654(n+2)
