COMMENT

See A134426 for the enumeration of these paths according to the ordinates of their endpoints.

FORMULA

G.f.=2/(1-7z+sqrt(1-6z+z^2)). G.f.=g/(1-2zg), where g is the g.f. of the little Schroder numbers 1,3,11,45,197,... (A001003).

EXAMPLE

a(2)=5 because we have F1, F2, F3, U1, and U2. a(3)=27 because we have 9 paths of shape FF, 2 paths of shape UD, 6 paths of shape FU, 6 paths of shape UF, and 4 paths of shape UU.

MAPLE

G:=2/(1-7*z+sqrt(1-6*z+z^2)): Gser:=series(G, z=0, 30): seq(coeff(Gser, z, n), n= 0..20);

CROSSREFS
