%N Delannoy paths counted by number of weak peaks.

%C T(n,k) = number of Delannoy paths (A001850) of size n with k weak peaks. A (central) Delannoy path is a lattice path of upsteps U=(1,1), downsteps D=(1,-1) and horizontal steps H=(2,0) that starts at the origin and ends on the x-axis. Its size is #Us + #Hs. Thus a Delannoy path of size n ends at the point (2n,0). A weak peak is a UD or an H.

%H G. C. Greubel, <a href="/A133214/b133214.txt">Rows n = 0..50 of the triangle, flattened</a>

%H See Example 3 in Robert A. Sulanke, <a href="http://www.cs.uwaterloo.ca/journals/JIS/VOL6/Sulanke/delannoy.html">Objects Counted by the Central Delannoy Numbers</a>, Journal of Integer Sequences, Volume 6, 2003, Article 03.1.5.

%F T(n, k) = 2^k binomial(n,k)^2.

%F G.f.: Sum_{n>=k>=0} T(n,k) x^n y^k = 1/Sqrt((1-x)^2 - 4*x*y*(1+x-x*y)).

%F Row sums are the central Delannoy numbers A001850.

%e Table begins:

%e \ k.0...1....2....3....4....5

%e n\

%e 0 |.1

%e 1 |.1...2

%e 2 |.1...8....4

%e 3 |.1..18...36....8

%e 4 |.1..32..144..128...16

%e 5 |.1..50..400..800..400...32

%e T(2,1) = 8 counts the paths UUDD, UDDU, UHD, DUUD, DUDU, DUH, DHU, HDU

%e because each contains a single UD or a single H but not both.
