FORMULA

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} C(n,k)*C(2*n-k+1,n-k)*(k+1)/(2*n-k+1). G.f. satisfies: d/dx[log(1-4*x*A(x))] = -4*(1-5*x)/(1-13*x+43*x^2-7*x^3).

o.g.f.: 2*(R+x)/(R*(R+x+1)), where R = sqrt(x^2+6*x+1). [From Dan Drake (ddrake(AT)member.ams.org), May 19 2010]

EXAMPLE

The dot product of Catalan row 4 and Pascal row 4 equals

a(4) = [14,14,9,4,1]*[1,4,6,4,1] = 141

which is equivalent to obtaining the final term

in these repeated partial sums of Pascal row 4:

1,4, 6, 4, 1

.5,11,15,16

..16,31,47

...47,94

....141

PROG

(PARI) a(n)=sum(k=0, n, binomial(n, k)*binomial(2*n-k+1, n-k)*(k+1)/(2*n-k+1))
