A065096 Sums of lists produced by a variant of the iteration that produces the Catalan numbers: start with 0 and at each iteration replace each integer k by the list 0,1,...,k-1,k,k+1,k,k-1,...,1,0 and let a(n) be the sum of the resulting (flattened) list after n iterations. 3

COMMENTS

Number of diagonals emanating from a fixed vertex of a convex (n+3)-gon in all of its dissections. Example: a(1)=1 because in the three dissections of a convex quadrilateral ABCD (namely: empty, {AC}, {BD}) there is only one diagonal emanating from A.

FORMULA

G.f.=(1-3z-sqrt(1-6z+z^2))^2/(16z^3).

a(n)=(1/pi)*Int(x^n*sqrt(-x^2+6x-1)*(x-3)/8,x,3-2sqrt(2),3+2sqrt(2)); - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Sep 16 2006

a(0) = 0 and, for n>0, a(n) = Sum_{k=1..n} A001003(k)*A001003(n+1-k) . - DELEHAM Philippe (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Jan 27 2004

MATHEMATICA

Table[Plus@@Flatten[Nest[ #/.a_Integer:> Join[Range[0, a+1], Range[a, 0, -1]]&, {0}, n]], {n, 0, 10}]

Table[Range[n, 0, -1].Table[a[n, k], {k, 0, n}], {n, 0, 36}] with a[n, k] as defined in A033877.
