%N Sum of the heights of all dispersed Dyck paths of length n (i.e., of Motzkin paths of length n with no (1,0) steps at positive heights).

%C a(n) = Sum_{k>=0} k * A191314(n,k).

%H Alois P. Heinz, <a href="/A191315/b191315.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..1000</a>

%F G.f.: G(z) = Sum_{j>=0}(jz^(2j)/(F(j)F(j+1))), where F(k) are polynomials in z defined by F(0)=1, F(1)=1-z, F(k)=F(k-1)-z^2*F(k-2) for k>=2. The coefficients of these polynomials form the triangle A108299.

%e a(4)=6 because the sum of the heights of the paths HHHH, HHUD, HUDH, UDHH, UDUD, and UUDD is 0+1+1+1+1+2=6; here U=(1,1), H=(1,0), D=(1,-1).

%p F[0] := 1: F[1] := 1-z: for k from 2 to 36 do F[k] := sort(expand(F[k-1]-z^2*F[k-2])) end do: G := sum(j*z^(2*j)/(F[j]*F[j+1]), j = 0 .. 34): Gser := series(G, z = 0, 40): seq(coeff(Gser, z, n), n = 0 .. 35);
