A128726 Number of LL's in all skew Dyck paths of semilength n. 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)=Sum(k*A128724(n,k),k=0..n-2).

REFERENCES

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

FORMULA

G.f.=z(1-g+zg^2)/[(1-z-zg)(1+z-3zg)], where g=1+zg^2+z(g-1)=[1-z-sqrt(1-6z+5z^2)]/(2z).

EXAMPLE

a(4)=7 because we have UDUUUDLL, UUUUDLLD, UUDUUDLL, UUUDUDLL, UUUUDDLL and UUUUDLLL (last path has two LL's).

MAPLE

g:=(1-z-sqrt(1-6*z+5*z^2))/(2*z): G:=z*(g-1-z*g^2)/((1-z-z*g)*(1+z-3*z*g)): Gser:=series(G, z=0, 30): seq(coeff(Gser, z, n), n=0..27);

CROSSREFS
