Eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the matrix with entries $\dbinom{n+1}{2j-i}$ for $i, j = 1, 2, \ldots, n$
Let $n$ be a nonnegative integer, and let $B$ be the $n \times n$-matrix (over the rational numbers) whose $\left(i, j\right)$-th entry is $\dbinom{n+1}{2j-i}$ for all $i, j \in \left\{ 1, 2, \ldots, ...

Reference request for some determinants of binomial coefficients
Let $C_{n}=\binom{2n}{n}\frac{1}{n+1}$ be a Catalan number. I am interested in books or papers where the following identities occur:
$$\det\left(\binom{i+j+1}{i-j+1}\right)_{0 \leq i,j\leq {n-1}}=C_{n}...

Some more binomial coefficient determinants
The setup is similar to this question, but generalizes the size of the Hankel matrix. We'll define
$$d(n,k,r):=\det\left(\binom{2i+2j+k+r}{i+j}\right)_{i,j=0}^{kn-1}.$$
Edit: Thanks to Johann ...

Some binomial coefficient determinants
It is well known that for $n>0$
$$d(n)=\det\left(\binom{2i+2j+1}{i+j}\right)_{i,j=0}^{n-1}=1.$$
Computer experiments suggest that more generally
$$d(n,k)=\det\left(\binom{2i+2j+2k+1}{i+j}\right)_{i,...
