A108438 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is number of paths from (0,0) to (3n,0) that stay in the first quadrant (but may touch the horizontal axis), consisting of steps u=(2,1), U=(1,2), or d=(1,-1), and having abscissa of the first peak equal to k. +0

COMMENT

Row n contains 2n terms. Row sums yield A027307. T(n,1)=A032349(n-1).

REFERENCES

Problem 10658, American Math. Monthly, 107, 2000, 368-370.

FORMULA

G.f.=G=G(t, z)=1/(1-t^2zA-tzA^2)-1, where A=1+zA^2+zA^3=(2/3)*sqrt((z+3)/z)*sin((1/3)*arcsin(sqrt(z)*(z+18)/(z+3)^(3/2)))-1/3 (the g.f. of A027307).

EXAMPLE

T(2,3)=2 because we have Uuddd and uUddd.

MAPLE

A:=(2/3)*sqrt((z+3)/z)*sin((1/3)*arcsin(sqrt(z)*(z+18)/(z+3)^(3/2)))-1/3: G:=1/(1-t^2*z*A-t*z*A^2)-1: Gserz:=simplify(series(G, z=0, 10)): for n from 1 to 8 do P[n]:=sort(coeff(Gserz, z^n)) od: > for n from 1 to 8 do seq(coeff(P[n], t^k), k=1..2*n) od; # yields sequence in triangular form
