Number of (1,1)-steps on the lines y=x, y=x+1, and y=x-1 in all Delannoy paths of length n (a Delannoy path of length n is a path from (0,0) to (n,n), consisting of steps E=(1,0), N=(0,1), and D=(1,1)). |

FORMULA
|
G.f.=z(1-z-zr+z^2+z^2*r)/[(1-6z+z^2)(1-3z+z^2-zr+z^2*r)], where r=1+zr+zr^2=[1-z-sqrt(1-6z+z^2)]/(2z) is the g.f. of the large Schroeder numbers (A006318)
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
a(3)=55 because on the 63 (=A001850(3)) Delannoy paths of length 3 we have alltogether A108666(3)=57 D-steps; however 2 of these, namely the D's in NNDEE and EEDNN, are not on the lines y=x, y=x+1, y=x-1.
