%N Triangular array of generalized Narayana numbers: T(n, k) = 4*binomial(n+1, k+3)*binomial(n+1, k-1)/(n+1).

%C T(n,k) is the number of walks of n unit steps, each step in the direction either up (U), down (D), right (R) or left (L), starting from (0,0) and finishing at lattice points on the horizontal line y = 3 and which remain in the upper half-plane y >= 0. An example is given in the Example section below.

%C The current array is the case r = 3 of the generalized Narayana numbers N_r(n,k) := (r + 1)/(n + 1)*binomial(n + 1,k + r)*binomial(n + 1,k - 1), which count walks of n steps from the origin to points on the horizontal line y = r that remain in the upper half-plane. Case r = 0 gives the table of Narayana numbers A001263 (but with an offset of 0 in the row numbering). For other cases see A145596 (r = 1), A145597 (r = 2) and A145599 (r = 4).

%F T(n,k) = 4/(n+1)*binomial(n+1,k+3)*binomial(n+1,k-1) for n >=3 and 1 <= k <= n-2. In the notation of [Guy], T(n,k) equals w_n(x,y) at (x,y) = (2*k - n + 1,3). Row sums A003518.
