A109189 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is number of Grand Motzkin paths of length n having k (1,0)-steps at level zero. (A Grand Motzkin path is a path in the half-plane x>=0, starting at (0,0), ending at (n,0) and consisting of steps u=(1,1), d=(1,-1) and h=(1,0).). +0

COMMENT

Row sums yield the central trinomial coefficients (A002426). T(n,0)=A109190(n). sum(k*T(n,k),k=0..n)=A015518(n).

FORMULA

G.f.= 1/(1-tz-2z^2*M), where M=1+zM+z^2*M^2=[1-z-sqrt(1-2z-3z^2)]/(2z^2) is the g.f. of the Motzkin numbers (A001006).

EXAMPLE

T(4,1)=4 because we have (h)uhd, (h)dhu, uhd(h) and dhu(h), where u=(1,1),d=(1,-1), h=(1,0) and the (1,0) steps at level 0 are shown between parentheses.
