A114596 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of hill-free Dyck paths of semilength n and having abscissa of first return equal to 2k (2<=k<=n). A hill in a Dyck path is a peak at level 1. +0

COMMENT

Row sums are the Fine numbers (A000957). Column 2 yield the Fine numbers (A000957). T(n,n)=Catalan(n-1) (A000108). Sum(k*T(n,k),k=2..n)=2*A014301(n).

FORMULA

T(n, k)=c(k-1)f(n-k) (2<=k<=n), where c(n)=binomial(2n, n)/(n+1) (the Catalan numbers; A000108) and f(n)=3sum(binomial(2n-2j, n), j=0..floor(n/2))-binomial(2n+2, n+1) (the Fine numbers, A000957). G.f. =[2+2z-2tz+sqrt(1-4z)-sqrt(1-4tz)]/[1+2z+sqrt(1-4z)]-1.

EXAMPLE

T(5,3)=2 because we have UUUDDD|UUDD and UUDUDD|UUDD, where U=(1,1), D=(1,-1) (first return is shown by a vertical bar).

MAPLE

c:=n->binomial(2*n, n)/(n+1): f:=n->3*sum(binomial(2*n-2*j, n), j=0..floor(n/2))-binomial(2*n+2, n+1): for n from 2 to 12 do seq(c(k-1)*f(n-k), k=2..n) od; # yields sequence in triangular form
