A132886 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of paths in the right half-plane, from (0,0) to (n,0), consisting of steps U=(1,1), D=(1,-1), h=(1,0), and H=(2,0), having k U steps (0<=k<=floor(n/2)). +0

COMMENT

Row n has 1+floor(n/2) terms. T(n,0)=A000045(n+1) (the Fibonacci numbers). T(2n,n)=binom(2n,n)=A000984(n) (the central binomial coefficients). Row sums yield A059345. Column k has g.f. = binom(2k,k)*z^(2k)/(1-z-z^2)^(2k+1); accordingly, T(n,1)=2*A001628(n-2), T(n,2)=6*A001873(n-4), T(n,3)=20*A001875(n-6). See A132883 for the same statistic on paths restricted to the first quadrant.

FORMULA

G.f.=G(t,z)=1/sqrt[(1-z-z^2)^2-4tz^2].

EXAMPLE

Triangle starts:

1;

1;

2,2;

3,6;

5,18,6;

8,44,30;

13,102,120,20;

T(3,1)=6 because we have hUD, UhD, UDh, hDU, DhU, and DUh.

MAPLE

G:=1/sqrt((1-z-z^2)^2-4*t*z^2): Gser:=simplify(series(G, z=0, 17)): for n from 0 to 13 do P[n]:= sort(coeff(Gser, z, n)) end do: for n from 0 to 13 do seq(coeff(P[n], t, j), j=0..floor((1/2)*n)) end do; # yields sequence in triangular form
