%N Number of length n left factors of Dyck paths having no base pyramids.

%C A base pyramid is a factor of the form U^j D^j (j>0), starting at the horizontal axis (here U=(1,1) and D=(1,-1)).

%F a(n) = A191788(n,0).

%F G.f.: (1-z^2)*c/((1-z*c)*(1+z^4*c^2)), where c=(1-sqrt(1-4*z^2))/(2*z^2).

%e a(4)=3 because we have UUDU, UUUD, and UUUU; each of the paths (UD)(UD), (UD)UU, and (UUDD) has at least one base pyramid (shown between parentheses).
