COMMENTS

Diagonal sums of number triangle A117434.

a(n) = number of Motzkin n-paths (A001006) in which every flatstep (F) is followed by a downstep (D). For example, a(5)=4 counts UDUFD, UFDUD, UUDFD, UUFDD. - David Callan (callan(AT)stat.wisc.edu), Jun 07 2006

FORMULA

a(n)=sum{k=0..floor(n/2), C(k)C(k,n-2k)}.

Conjecture: (n+2)*a(n) +(n+2)*a(n-1) +4*(1-n)*a(n-2) +2*(7-4*n)*a(n-3) +2*(5-2*n)*a(n-4)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Nov 15 2011
