COMMENT

Number of Dyck paths of length 2n having an odd number of peaks at even height. Example: a(3)=2 because we have UDU(UD)D and U(UD)DUD, where U=(1,1), D=(1,-1) and the peaks at even height are shown between parentheses. - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Nov 13 2004

FORMULA

Let c(x) = (1-sqrt(1-4*x))/(2*x) = g.f. for Catalans (A000108), let d(x) = 1+x*c(x^2). Then g.f. is (c(x)-d(x))/2.

G.f.=[sqrt(1-4z^2)-sqrt(1-4z)-2z]/(4z). - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Nov 13 2004
