FORMULA
|
a(n)=7/3*(n-1)*(n-2)*binomial(3*n, n)/(3*n-1)/(2*n+1)/(3*n-2) for n>0; a(0)=1. G.f.=g(1+z-2zg), where g=1+zg^3 is the g.f. of the ternary numbers (A001764).
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
a(2)=0 because in all the three noncrossing trees with 2 edges, namely, /_, /\, and _\, the root (=the top vertex) is incident with at least one border edge.

MAPLE
|
a:=n->7/3*(n-1)*(n-2)*binomial(3*n, n)/(3*n-1)/(2*n+1)/(3*n-2): 1, seq(a(n), n=1..25);
