COMMENT

a(n)=sum of the major indices of all Dyck words of length 2n-2. The major index of a Dyck word is the sum of the positions of those 1's that are followed by a 0. Example: a(4)=15 because the Dyck words of length 6 are 010101, 010011, 001101, 001011 and 000111 having major indices 6,2,4,3 and 0, respectively. a(n)=Sum(k*A129175(n,k),k=0..n(n-1)). - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Apr 20 2007
