A127529 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of ordered trees with n edges and jump-length equal to k (n>=0, 0<=k<=n-2). In the preorder traversal of an ordered tree, any transition from a node at a deeper level to a node on a strictly higher level is called a jump; the positive difference of the levels is called the jump distance; the sum of the jump distances in a given ordered tree is called the jump-length. 3

COMMENTS

Rows 0 and 1 have one term each; row n (n>=2) has n-1 terms. Row sums are the Catalan numbers (A000108). T(n,0)=A011782(n). T(n,1)=A000337(n-2). Sum(k*T(n,k),k>=0)=binom(2n-1,n-3)=A003516(n-1) for n>=3. The distribution of the statistic "number of jumps" is given in A091894. The average jump distance in all ordered trees with n edges is 2 - 5/(n+2) (i.e. about 2 levels for n large). The Krandick reference considers jump-length for full binary trees.

Also the number of Dyck n-paths with k valleys at height >= 1. [David Scambler, Sep 1 2011]

Triangle T(n,k), with zeros omitted, given by (1,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,...) DELTA (0,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,...) where DELTA is the operator defined in A084938. - DELEHAM Philippe, Feb 06 2012

MATHEMATICA

n = 12; g[t_, z_] := 1/2/(1 - 2z - t + t*z)*(-2t + 1 + t*z - z + Sqrt[-2t*z + 1 - 2z + t^2*z^2 - 2t*z^2 + z^2]); Flatten[ CoefficientList[#, t]&  /@ CoefficientList[ Simplify[Series[g[t, z], {z, 0, n}]], z]] (* From Jean-François Alcover, Jul 22 2011, after g.f. *)
