COMMENT

Conjectured to be crossing number of complete graph K_n, see A000241.

Comment from Erich Friedman (erich.friedman(AT)stetson.edu): also the maximum number of rectangles that can be formed from n lines.

Number of symmetric Dyck paths of semilength n and having five peaks. E.g. a(6)=3 because we have U*DU*DUU*DDU*DU*D, U*DUU*DU*DU*DDU*D, and UU*DU*DU*DU*DU*DD, where U=(1,1), D=(1,-1) and * indicates a peak. - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Jan 12 2004
