A129154 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of skew Dyck paths of semilength n and having k primitive Dyck factors (n >= 0; 0 <= k <= n). 3

COMMENTS
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. A primitive Dyck factor is a subpath of the form UPD that starts on the x-axis, P being a Dyck path.
Row sums yield A002212.

FORMULA
T(n,0) = A129155(n).
Sum_{k=0..n} k*T(n,k) = A129156(n).
G.f.: G(t,z) = (1 + z(g-1))/(1 - z(g-C) - tzC), where g = 1 + zg^2 + z(g-1) = (1 - z - sqrt(1 - 6z + 5z^2))/(2z) and C = 1 + zC^2 = (1-sqrt(1-4z))/(2z) is the Catalan function.
EXAMPLE
T(4,2)=6 because we have (UD)(UD)UUDL, (UD)(UUDUDD), (UD)(UUUDDD), (UUDD)(UUDD), (UUDUDD)(UD) and (UUUDDD)(UD) (the primitive Dyck factors are shown between parentheses).

MAPLE
