A128745 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of skew Dyck paths of semilength n and having height of the last peak equal to k (1<=k<=n). A skew Dyck path is a path in the first quadrant which begins at the origin, ends on the x-axis, consists of steps U=(1,1)(up), D=(1,-1)(down) and L=(-1,-1)(left) so that up and left steps do not overlap. The length of the path is defined to be the number of its steps. 1

COMMENTS

Row sums yield A002212. T(n,1)=A033321(n-1). Sum(k*T(n,k),k=1..n)=A128746(n).

FORMULA

G.f.= tz/(1-zg-2tz), where g=1+zg^2+z(g-1)=[1-z-sqrt(1-6z+5z^2)]/(2z).

EXAMPLE

T(3,2)=4 because we have UDUUDD, UDUUDL, UUDUDD and UUDUDL.

Triangle starts:

MAPLE

g:=(1-z-sqrt(1-6*z+5*z^2))/2/z: G:=t*z/(1-2*t*z-z*g): Gser:=simplify(series(G, z=0, 15)): for n from 1 to 11 do P[n]:=sort(coeff(Gser, z, n)) od: for n from 1 to 11 do seq(coeff(P[n], t, j), j=1..n) od; # yields sequence in triangular form
