COMMENTS

Number of (s(0), s(1), ..., s(2n)) such that 0 < s(i) < 10 and |s(i) - s(i-1)| = 1 for i = 1,2,....,2n, s(0) = 1, s(2n) = 1. - Herbert Kociemba (kociemba(AT)t-online.de), Jun 14 2004

The sequence 1,2,5,14,... has g.f. 1/(1-2x-x^2/(1-2x-x^2/(1-2x-x^2/(1-2x))))=(1-6x+10x^2-4x^3)/(1-8x+21x^2-20x^3+5x^4),

and is the second binomial transform A001519 aerated. (End)

Counts all paths of length (2*n), n>=0, starting and ending at the initial node on the path graph P_9, see the Maple program.
