A143954 Number of peaks in the peak plateaux of all Dyck paths of semilength n. A peak plateau is a run of consecutive peaks that is preceded by an upstep and followed by a down step; a peak consists of an upstep followed by a downstep. +0

COMMENT

a(n) = Sum(k*A143953(n,k), k=0..n-1).

FORMULA

G.f. = z^2*C/[(1-z)^2*sqrt(1-4z)], where C=[1-sqrt(1-4z)]/(2z) is the Catalan function.

EXAMPLE

a(3)=5 because in the peak plateaux of the Dyck paths UDUDUD, UD(UUDD), (UUDD)UD, (UUDUDD) and U(UUDD)D, shown between parentheses, we have 0 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 = 5 peaks.

MAPLE

C:=((1-sqrt(1-4*z))*1/2)/z: G:=z^2*C/((1-z)^2*sqrt(1-4*z)): Gser:=series(G, z= 0, 30): seq(coeff(Gser, z, n), n=0..25);
