Number of paths starting from the root in all ordered trees with n+1 edges (a path is a nonempty tree with no vertices of outdegree greater than 1). Example: a(2)=8 because the five trees with three edges have altogether 1+0+2+2+3=8 paths hanging from the roots. - Emeric Deutsch, Oct 20 2002
a(n)=sum of the mean maximal pyramid size over all Dyck (n+1)-paths. Also, a(n)=sum of the mean maximal sawtooth size over all Dyck (n+1)-paths. A pyramid (resp. sawtooth) in a Dyck path is a subpath of the form U^k D^k (resp. (UD)^k) with k>=1 and k is its size. For example, the maximal pyramids in the Dyck path uUUDD|UD|UDdUUDD are indicated by uppercase letters (and separated by a vertical bar). Their sizes are 2,1,1,2 left to right and the mean maximal pyramid size of the path is 6/4=3/2. Also, the mean maximal sawtooth size of this path is (1+2+1)/3=4/3. - David Callan, Jun 07 2006
p^2 divides a(p-1) for prime p of form p=6k+1 (A002476(k)). - Alexander Adamchuk, Jul 03 2006
p^2 divides a(p^2-1) for prime p>3. p^2 divides a(p^3-1) for prime p=7,13,19.. prime p in the form p=6k+1. - Alexander Adamchuk, Jul 03 2006
Row sums of triangle A137614 - Gary W. Adamson, Jan 30 2008
Equals INVERTi transform of A095930: (1, 4, 15, 57, 220, 859,...). [From Gary W. Adamson, May 15 2009]
a(n) < A000108(n+1), therefore A176137(n) <= 1. [From Reinhard Zumkeller, Apr 10 2010]
a(n) is also the sum of the numbers in Catalan's triangle (A009766)from row 0 to row n. [From Patrick Labarque (patrick.labarque(AT)base.be), Jul 27 2010]

FORMULA

a(n) = A014137(n)-1.
G.f.: (1-2*x-sqrt(1-4x))/(2x(1-x)) = (C(x)-1)/(1-x) where C(x) is the generating function for the Catalan numbers. - Rocio Blanco, Apr 02 2007
a(n) = Sum[ CatalanNumber[k], {k,1,n}]. - Alexander Adamchuk, Jul 03 2006
Binomial transform of A005554: (1, 2, 3, 6, 13, 30, 72,...). - Gary W. Adamson, Nov 23 2007
Conjecture: (n+1)*a(n) +(1-5n)*a(n-2) +2*(2n-1)*a(n-2)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Dec 14 2011
