A128725 Number of skew Dyck paths of semilength n having no LL's. A skew Dyck path is a path in the first quadrant which begins at the origin, ends on the x-axis, consists of steps U=(1,1)(up), D=(1,-1)(down), and L=(-1,-1)(left) so that up and left steps do not overlap. The length of a path is defined to be the number of steps in it. +0

COMMENT

a(n)=A128724(n,0).

REFERENCES

E. Deutsch, E. Munarini, and S. Rinaldi, Skew Dyck paths (in preparation).

FORMULA

G.f.=G=G(z) satisfies z^2*G^3-2zG^2+(1+z-z^2)G-1=0.

EXAMPLE

a(2)=3 because we have UDUD, UUDD, and UUDL; a(3)=9 because among the 10 skew Dyck paths of semilength 3 only UUUDLL does not qualify.

MAPLE

eq:=z^2*G^3-2*z*G^2+(1+z-z^2)*G-1=0: G:=RootOf(eq, G): Gser:=series(G, z=0, 30): seq(coeff(Gser, z, n), n=0..27);

CROSSREFS
