COMMENTS

Seems to approximate a Gaussian distribution, the sum of all 1+n^2 terms in a row equals the central binomial coefficients.

a(n,k) is the number of sequences of n 0s and n 1s having major index equal to k (the major index is the sum of the positions of the 1s that are immediately followed by 0s). Equivalently, a(n,k) is the number of Grand Dyck paths of length 2n for which the sum of the positions of the valleys is k. Example: a(3,7)=2 because the only sequences of 3 0s and 3 1s with major index 7 are 010110 and 110010. The corresponding Grand Dyck paths are obtained by replacing a 0 by a U=(1,1) step and a 1 by a D=(1,-1) step. - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Oct 02 2007

FORMULA

Table[T[k, n, n], {n, 0, 9}, {k, 0, n^2}] with T[ ] defined as in A047993.

G.f.: Consider a function; f(n) = 1 + sum(i_1=1, n, sum(i_2=0, i_1, ..., sum(i_n=0, i_(n-1), x^(sum(j=1, n, i_j))*(1+...+x^i_n))...)) Then the GF is f(1)+x^3.f(2)+x^8.f(3)+..., where after x^3 the increase is n^2+1 from f(n). - Jon Perry (perry(AT)globalnet.co.uk), Jul 13 2004

G.f. for n-th row is obtained if we set x(i) = 1+x^i+x^(2*i)+...+x^(n*i), i=1, 2, ..., n, in the cycle index Z(S(n);x(1), x(2), ..., x(n)) of the symmetric group S(n) of degree n. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Dec 17 2004

G.f. of row n = the q-binomial coefficient [2n,n]. - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Apr 23 2007

EXAMPLE

{1}, {1,1}, {1,1,2,1,1}, {1,1,2,3,3,3,3,2,1,1}, ...

Cycle index of S(3) is (1/6)*(x(1)^3+3*x(1)*x(2)+2*x(3)), so g.f. for 3rd row is (1/6)*((1+x+x^2+x^3)^3+3*(1+x+x^2+x^3)*(1+x^2+x^4+x^6)+2*(1+x^3+x^6+x^9) = x^9+x^8+2*x^7+3*x^6+3*x^5+3*x^4+3*x^3+2*x^2+x+1.

a(3,7)=2 because the only partitions of 7 with Ferrers plot fitting into a 3 by 3 box are [3,3,1] and [3,2,2].
