A127153 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of Dyck paths of semilength n and having k UDUD's starting at level 0; here U=(1,1), D=(1,-1) (0<=k<=n-1). 1

COMMENTS

Row 0 has one entry; row n has n entries (n>=1). Row sums yield the Catalan numbers (A000108). Column 0 yields A127154. The reference does not list the 0's (p. 2920, lines 3,4).

FORMULA

G.f.=(1+z-tz)/[1+z-tz+z^2-tz^2-zC(1+z-tz)], where C=[1-sqrt(1-4z)]/(2z) is the Catalan g.f. (see A000108).

Or, g.f.=[1+(1-t)z]C/[1+(1-t)z(1+zC)].

EXAMPLE

T(4,1)=2 because we have UDUDUUDD and UUDDUDUD; T(4,3)=1 because we have UDUDUDUD.

MAPLE

G:=(1+z-t*z)/(1+z-t*z+z^2-t*z^2-z*C*(1+z-t*z)): C:=(1-sqrt(1-4*z))/2/z: Gser:=simplify(series(G, z=0, 16)): for n from 0 to 13 do P[n]:=sort(coeff(Gser, z, n)) od: 1; for n from 1 to 13 do seq(coeff(P[n], t, j), j=0..n-1) od; # yields sequence in triangular form
