A114492 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of Dyck paths of semilength n and having k DDUU's, where U=(1,1), D=(1,-1) (0<=k<=floor(n/2)-1 for n>=2). +0

COMMENT

Rows 0 and 1 contain one term each; row n contains floor(n/2) terms (n>=2). Row sums are the Catalan numbers (A000108). Column 0 yields A086581. Sum(k*T(n,k),k=0..floor(n/2)-1) = binomial(2n-3,n-4) (A003516).

FORMULA

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

EXAMPLE

T(5,1)=7 because we have UU(DDUU)DUDD, UU(DDUU)UDDD, UDUU(DDUU)DD, their mirror images, and UUU(DDUU)DDD (the DDUU's are shown between parentheses).

MAPLE

G:=1/2/(-t*z-z^2+z^2*t)*(-1+2*z-2*t*z-z^2+z^2*t+sqrt(1+z^4-2*z^4*t+z^4*t^2-4*z+2*z^2-2*z^2*t)): Gser:=simplify(series(G, z=0, 17)): P[0]:=1: for n from 1 to 14 do P[n]:=coeff(Gser, z^n) od: 1; 1; for n from 0 to 14 do seq(coeff(t*P[n], t^j), j=1..floor(n/2)) od; # yields sequence in triangular form
