COMMENT

The name refers to weakly increasing peaks. The case of strictly increasing peaks is counted by A008930. - David Callan (callan(AT)stat.wisc.edu), Feb 18 2004

a(n) ~ 0.11997*[(3+sqrt(5))/2]^n (Theorem 2 of the Penaud-Roques paper). - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Mar 05 2008

Row sums of A138155. - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Mar 05 2008

FORMULA

G.f.: sum_{n >= 0} {(-1)^n x^{2n+1}(1-x)}/ {prod_{i=1...n+1}((1-x)(1-x^i)-x)}

EXAMPLE

a(3)=4 because we have UDUDUD, UDUUDD, UUDUDD and UUUDDD, where U=(1,1) and D=(1,-1).

MAPLE

g:=sum((-1)^n*z^(2*n+1)*(1-z)/(product((1-z)*(1-z^i)-z, i=1..n+1)), n=0..40): gser:=series(g, z=0, 35): seq(coeff(gser, z, n), n=1..30); - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Mar 05 2008
