COMMENTS

Contribution from Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Aug 21 2008: (Start)

Number of Dyck paths of height at least 4 and of semilength n. Example: a(5)=8 because we have UUUUUDDDDD, UUUUDUDDDD, UUUDUUDDDD, UUDUUUDDDD, UDUUUUDDDD and the reflection of the last three in a vertical axis.

Number of ordered trees of height at least 4 and having n edges. (End)

FORMULA

A000108(n) - A001519(n), n>0; A000108 = Catalan numbers, A001519 = odd indexed Fibonacci numbers.

EXAMPLE

a(5) = 8 = A000108(5) - A001519(5) = 42 - 34.

MAPLE

with(combinat): seq(binomial(2*n, n)/(n+1)-fibonacci(2*n-1), n=1..27); [From Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Aug 21 2008]
