%N Number of Dyck paths with no UUU's and no DDD's, of semilength n having no peak plateaux (U=(1,1), D=(1,-1)).

%C A peak plateau is a run of consecutive peaks that is preceded by an upstep U and followed by a down step D; a peak consists of an upstep followed by a downstep.

%F a(n) = A166285(n,0).

%F G.f.: G(z) satisfies G = 1 + zG + z^2*G + z^3*G[G - 1/(1-z)].

%F D-finite with recurrence (n+3)*a(n) +(-5*n-9)*a(n-1) +2*(4*n+3)*a(n-2) -4*n*a(n-3) +2*(-2*n+9)*a(n-5) +2*(4*n-21)*a(n-6) +4*(-n+6)*a(n-7)=0. - _R. J. Mathar_, Jul 22 2022

%e a(3)=3 because we have UDUDUD, UDUUDD, and UUDDUD (UUDUDD is a peak plateau).

%p F := RootOf(G = 1+z*G+z^2*G+z^3*G*(G-1/(1-z)), G): Fser := series(F, z = 0, 35): seq(coeff(Fser, z, n), n = 0 .. 32);

%Y Cf. A166285.

%K nonn
