A135328 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of Dyck paths of semilength n having k UDDU's starting at level 1. 2

COMMENTS
Each of rows 0, 1, 2 has one term; row n (n >= 1) has ceiling(n/2) terms. Row sums are the Catalan numbers (A000108). Column 0 yields A135334. - Emeric Deutsch, Dec 14 2007

FORMULA
From Emeric Deutsch, Dec 14 2007: (Start)
T(n,k) = 2*((k+1)/(n+1))*Sum_{j=k..floor((n-1)/2)} (-1)^(j-k)*binomial(j+1, k+1)*binomial(2n-2j-1, n) (n >= 1).
G.f.: 1 + z*C^2/(1 + (1-t)*z^2*C^2), where C = (1-sqrt(1-4z))/(2z) is the g.f. of the Catalan numbers (A000108). (End)
EXAMPLE
Triangle begins:
1;
1;
2;
4 1;
10 4;
29 12 1;
90 36 6;
290 114 24 1;
960 376 86 8;
3246 1272 303 40 1;
...
T(4,1)=4 because we have UDU(UDDU)D, U(UDDU)DUD, U(UDDU)UDD and UUD(UDDU)D (the UDDU's starting at level 1 are shown between parentheses).

G:=1+z*C^2/(1+(1-t)*z^2*C^2): C:=((1-sqrt(1-4*z))*1/2)/z: Gser:=simplify(series(G, z=0, 16)): for n from 0 to 13 do P[n]:=sort(coeff(Gser, z, n)) end do: 1; for n to 13 do seq(coeff(P[n], t, j), j=0..floor((n-1)*1/2)) end do; # yields sequence in triangular form; Emeric Deutsch, Dec 14 2007
# third Maple program:

`if`(x=0, 1, expand(b(x-1, y+1, `if`(y=1, 1, 0))*
`if`(t=3, z, 1))+b(x-1, y-1, `if`(t in [1, 2], t+1, 0))))
end:
T:= n-> (p-> seq(coeff(p, z, i), i=0..degree(p)))(b(2*n, 0$2)):
seq(T(n), n=0..14); # Alois P. Heinz, Nov 16 2019
