A129175 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of Dyck words of length 2n having major index k (n>=0, k>=0). A Dyck word of length 2n is a word of n 0's and n 1's for which no initial segment contains more 1's than 0's. The major index of a Dyck word is the sum of the positions of those 1's that are followed by a 0. +0

COMMENT

Representing a Dyck word p of length 2n as a Dyck path p', the major index of p is equal to the sum of the abscissae of the valleys of p'. Row n has 1+n(n-1) terms. Row sums are the Catalan numbers (A000108). T(n,k)=T(n,n^2-n-k) (i.e. rows are palindromic). Alternating row sums are the central binomial coefficients binom(n,floor(n/2))=A001405(n). Sum(k*T(n,k),k=0..n(n-1))=A002740(n+1). T(n,k)=A129174(n,n+k) (i.e. except for the initial 0's, rows of A129174 and A129175 are the same).

FORMULA

The generating polynomial for row n is P[n](t) = binom[2n,n]/[n+1], where [n+1]=1+t+t^2+...+t^n and binom[2n,n] is a Gaussian polynomial.

EXAMPLE

T(4,8)=2 because we have 01001101 (with 10's starting at positions 2 and 6) and 00101011 (with 10's starting at positions 3 and 5).
