COMMENTS

Number of protected vertices in all ordered rooted trees with n edges. A protected vertex in an ordered tree is a vertex at least 2 edges away from its leaf descendants. [From Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Aug 20 2008]

1,3,11,... gives the diagonal sums of A111418. Hankel transform of a(n) is A128834. Hankel transform of a(n+1) is A187340. [Paul Barry, Mar 8 2011]

FORMULA

Binomial(2*n-1, n)/3 - A000957(n)/3;

(1/2)*Sum_{k=0..n} (-1)^(n-k)*binomial(n+k-1, k). - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Aug 28 2002

G.f.: [1-2z-sqrt(1-4z)]/[3sqrt(1-4z)-1+4z]. a(n)=[A026641(n)-A026641(n-1)]/3 for n>1. - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Jan 26 2004

a(n)=(1/2)sum(binomial(2n-2j-2, n-2), j=0..floor(n/2)).

a(n)=sum{k=0..n, (-1)^(n-k)*C(n+k,k-1)}; - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Jul 18 2006
