A132893 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of paths of length n with steps U=(1,1), D=(1,-1) and H=(1,0), starting at (0,0), staying weakly above the x-axis (i.e. left factors of Motzkin paths) and having k peaks (i.e. UDs; (0<=k<=floor(n/2)). 1

COMMENTS

Row n has 1+floor(n/2) terms. T(n,0)=A091964(n). Row sums yield A005773. Sum(k*T(n,k),k=0..floor(n/2))=A132894(n-1).

FORMULA

G.f.=G=G(t,z) satisfies z(1-3z+z^(2)-tz^(2))G^(2)+(1-3z+z^(2)-tz^(2))G-1=0 (see the Maple program for the explicit expression of G).

EXAMPLE

T(3,1)=4 because we have HUD, UDH, UDU and UUD.

MAPLE

G:=((-1+3*z-z^2+t*z^2+sqrt((1+z+z^2-t*z^2)*(1-3*z+z^2-t*z^2)))*1/2)/(z*(1-3*z+z^2-t*z^2)): Gser:=simplify(series(G, z=0, 15)): for n from 0 to 12 do P[n]:=sort(coeff(Gser, z, n)) end do: for n from 0 to 12 do seq(coeff(P[n], t, j), j=0..floor((1/2)*n)) end do; # yields sequence in triangular form
