The generalized Catalan numbers C(k,n):= binomial(k*n+1,n)/(k*n+1) become for negative k=-|k|, with |k|>=2, ((-1)^(n-1))*binomial((|k|+1)*n-2,n)/(|k|*n-1), n>=0.
The family c(k,n):=binomial((k+1)*n-2,n)/(k*n-1), n>=1, has the members A000108, A006013, A006632, A118971 for k=1,2,3,4, respectively (but the offset there is 0).
The members of the C(k,n) family for positive k are: A000012 (powers of 1), A000108, A001764, A002293, A002294, A002295, A002296, A007556, A062994, for k=1..9.
The ordinary generating functions for the k-family {c(k, n+1)}_{n>=0}, k >= 1, are G(k, x) = hypergeometric(Aseq(k+1), Bseq(k), ((k+1)^(k+1)/k^k)*x), with Aseq(k+1) = [a(k)_1,..., a(k)_{k+1}], where a(k)_j = (2*k - (j-1))/(k+1), and Bseq(k) = [b(k)_1, ..., b(k)_k], where b(k)_j = (2*k - (j-1))/k. The e.g.f. has an extra 1 in the B-section, which leads to a cancellation with the A-section 1 term. Thanks to Dixon J. Jones for asking for the general formulas. - Wolfdieter Lang, Feb 04 2024
The o.g.f. of {C(k, n)}_{n>=0} is in the Graham-Knuth-Patashnik book denoted as B_k(z) on pp. 200, 349 (2nd ed. 1994, pp. 200, 363). - Wolfdieter Lang, Mar 07 2024

FORMULA
|
a(n) = binomial((k+1)*n-2,n)/(k*n-1), with k=5.
G.f.: inverse series of y*(1-y)^5.
G.f.: (5/6)*(1 - hypergeom([-1, 1, 2, 3, 4]/6, [1, 2, 3, 4]/5,(6^6/5^5)*x)).
E.g.f.: (5/6)*(1 - hypergeom([-1, 1, 2, 3, 4]/6, [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]/5,(6^6/5^5)*x)). (End)
D-finite with recurrence 5*n*(5*n-4)*(5*n-3)*(5*n-2)*(5*n-1)*a(n) -72*(6*n-7)*(3*n-1)*(2*n-1)*(3*n-2)*(6*n-5)*a(n-1)=0. - R. J. Mathar, May 07 2021
