For example, for n = 3, k = 4 we have the strings 121, 131, 232 and the six permutations of 123. - Joel Brewster Lewis (jblewis(AT)post.harvard.edu), May 06 2008 %H A122888 Art of Problem Solving forum, Strings on [n] with certain restrictions. %F A122888 T(n,k) = [x^k] F_n(x) where F_{n+1}(x) = F_n(x+x^2) for n>=0, with F_1(x) = x+x^2 and F_0(x)=x. %e A122888 Triangle begins: %e A122888 1; %e A122888 1, 1; %e A122888 1, 2, 2, 1; %e A122888 1, 3, 6, 9, 10, 8, 4, 1; %e A122888 1, 4, 12, 30, 64, 118, 188, 258, 302, 298, 244, 162, 84, 32, 8, 1; %e A122888 1, 5, 20, 70, 220, 630, 1656, 4014, 8994, 18654, 35832, 63750,...; %e A122888 1, 6, 30, 135, 560, 2170, 7916, 27326, 89582, 279622, 832680,...; %e A122888 1, 7, 42, 231, 1190, 5810, 27076, 121023, 520626, 2161158,...; %e A122888 1, 8, 56, 364, 2240, 13188, 74760, 409836, 2179556, 11271436,...; %e A122888 1, 9, 72, 540, 3864, 26628, 177744, 1153740, 7303164, 45179508,...; %e A122888 1, 10, 90, 765, 6240, 49260, 378312, 2836548, 20817588,...; ... %e A122888 Multiplying the g.f. of column k by (1-x)^k, k>=1, with leading zeros, %e A122888 yields the g.f. of row k in the triangle A122890: %e A122888 1; %e A122888 0, 1; %e A122888 0, 0, 2; %e A122888 0, 0, 1, 5; %e A122888 0, 0, 0, 10, 14; %e A122888 0, 0, 0, 8, 70, 42; %e A122888 0, 0, 0, 4, 160, 424, 132; %e A122888 0, 0, 0, 1, 250, 1978, 2382, 429; %e A122888 0, 0, 0, 0, 302, 6276, 19508, 12804, 1430; ... %e A122888 in which the main diagonal is the Catalan numbers %e A122888 and the row sums form the factorials. %o A122888 (PARI) {T(n,k)=local(F=x+x^2, G=x+x*O(x^k)); if(n<0, 0, for(i=1, n, G=subst(F, x, G)); return(polcoeff(G, k, x)))} %Y A122888 Cf.
