Comments

Apparently the number of Dyck n-paths that have n-2 peaks after changing each valley to a peak by the transformation DU -> UD. E.g., the Dyck 3-paths UUUDDD and UUDUDD have 1 peak after changing DU to UD so a(3) = 2. - David Scambler, Sep 03 2012

Formula

g.f. -x^3*(2+x) / (x^2+x-1)^3, i.e., a(n) = 2*A001628(n-3) + A001628(n-4). - R. J. Mathar, Jun 27 2012

a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-2) + A067331(n-3). E.g., a(5) = 21 = 7 + 2 + 12. - David Scambler, Sep 03 2012
