A114463 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of Dyck paths of semilength n having k ascents of length 2 starting at an odd level (0<=k<=floor(n/2)-1 for n>=2; k=0 for n=0,1). +0

COMMENT

Row n (n>=2) has floor(n/2) terms. Row sums are the Catalan numbers (A000108). Sum(kT(n,k),k=0..floor(n/2)-1)=binomial(2n-4,n) (A002694). Column 0 yields A114465.

FORMULA

G.f. G=G(t, z) satisfies z[(1-t)z^2-(1-t)z+1]G^2-[1-(1-t)z^2]G+1=0.

EXAMPLE

T(5,1)=6 because we have UUD(UU)DUDDD, UUD(UU)DDUDD, UUD(UU)DDDUD,

UDUUD(UU)DDD, UUDUD(UU)DDD and UUUDD(UU)DDD, where U=(1,1), D=(1,-1) (the ascents of length 2 starting at an odd level are shown between parentheses; note that the fourth path has an ascent of length 2 that starts at an even level).

MAPLE

G:=-1/2*(1-z^2+z^2*t-sqrt((z^2*t-z^2+4*z-1)*(z^2*t-z^2-1)))/z/(-z^2+z^2*t+z-z*t-1): Gser:=simplify(series(G, z=0, 18)): P[0]:=1: for n from 1 to 15 do P[n]:=coeff(Gser, z^n) od: 1; 1; for n from 2 to 15 do seq(coeff(t*P[n], t^j), j=1..floor(n/2)) od; # yields sequence in triangular form
