COMMENT

a(i,j) is the number of paths from (i,i) to (j,j) using steps of length (0,1), (1,0) and (1,1), not passing above the line y=x nor below the line y=x/2. The Hamburger Theorem implies that we can use this table to calculate the number of domino tilings of an Aztec 3-pillow (A112833). To calculate this quantity, let P_n = the principal n X n submatrix of this array. If J_n = the back-diagonal matrix of order n, then A112833(n)=det(P_n+J_nP_n^(-1)J_n).

EXAMPLE

The number of paths from (0,0) to (3,3) staying between the lines y=x and y=x/2 using steps of length (0,1), (1,0) and (1,1) is a(0,3)=5.
