COMMENTS

Number of dissections of a disk.

a(n+1) is the number of labeled incomplete ternary trees on n vertices in which each left and middle child have a larger label than their parent. - Brian Drake (bdrake(AT)brandeis.edu), Jul 28 2008

For n>0: a(n) = A173333(2*n,n+1); cf. A006963, A001813. [From Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Feb 19 2010]

FORMULA

a(n+2) = sum(A038455(n, m), m=1..n), n >= 1 - Wolfdieter Lang (wolfdieter.lang(AT)physik.uni-karlsruhe.de)

E.g.f. for this sequence = o.g.f. for A000108. - Len Smiley (smiley(AT)math.uaa.alaska.edu), Dec 07 2001

Integral representation as the moment of a positive function on the positive half-axis: in Maple notation a(n)=int(x^n*(-1/2+exp(-x/4)/sqrt(Pi*x)+erf(sqrt(x)/2)/2), x=0..infinity), n=0, 1... This representation is unique. - Karol.A. Penson (penson(AT)lptl.jussieu.fr), Aug 21 2001

n!*binomial(2*n,n)/(n+1) or A000108*n! - Zerinvary Lajos (zerinvarylajos(AT)yahoo.com), Jun 06 2006

G.f.: If G_N(x)=1+sum('(2*k)!*(x^k)/(k+1)!', 'k'=1..N),  G_N(x)=1+2*x/(G(0)-2*x); G(k)=4*x*(k^2)+6*k*x+k+2*x+2-2*x*(2*k+3)*((k+2)^2)/G(k+1) ; (continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Nov 24 2011
