COMMENTS

Column 0 of A114626.

FORMULA

G.f.=(C-1)/[z(1+z+z^2-z(1+z)C], where C=[1-sqrt(1-4z)]/(2z) is the Catalan function.

EXAMPLE

a(1)=2 because we have UUUDUDDD and UUUUDDDD, where U=(1,1), D=(1,-1).

MAPLE

C:=(1-sqrt(1-4*z))/2/z: G:=(C-1)/z/(1+z+z^2-z*(1+z)*C): Gser:=series(G, z=0, 32): 1, seq(coeff(Gser, z^n), n=1..28);
