Number of skew Dyck paths of semilength n having no ascents of length 1. 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 its steps. An ascent in a path is a maximal sequence of consecutive U steps. |

FORMULA
|
G.f.=G=G(z) satisfies z(1+z)G^2-(1-z^2)G+1-z=0.
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
a(3)=4 because we have UUUDDD, UUUDLD, UUUDDL, and UUUDLL.
|
|
MAPLE
|
G:=(1-z^2-sqrt((1-z^2)*(1-4*z-z^2)))/2/z/(1+z): Gser:=series(G, z=0, 35): seq(coeff(Gser, z, n), n=0..30);
