Number of peaks at height >1 in all skew Dyck paths of semilength 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.

FORMULA
| G.f.=[1-4z+2z^2+z^3-(1-z+z^2)sqrt(1-6z+5z^2)]/[2z(2-z)sqrt(1-6z+5z^2)].
|
|
|
EXAMPLE
| a(2)=2 because in the paths UDUD, U(UD)D and U(UD)L we have altogether 2 peaks at height >1 (shown between parentheses).

MAPLE
| G:=(1-4*z+2*z^2+z^3-(1-z+z^2)*sqrt(1-6*z+5*z^2))/2/z/(2-z)/sqrt(1-6*z+5*z^2): Gser:=series(G, z=0, 30): seq(coeff(Gser, z, n), n=1..27);
