FORMULA
a(n) = Sum(k*A278132(n,k), k>=0).
EXAMPLE
a(4)=10; indeed, the bargraphs of semiperimeter 4 correspond to the compositions [3],[1,2],[2,2],[2,1],[1,1,1] and the sum of their heights is 3+2+2+2+1=10.
MAPLE
x := z: y := z: eq := G(h) = x*(y+G(h))+y*G(h-1)+x*(y+G(h))*G(h-1): ic := G(1) = x*y/(1-x): sol := simplify(rsolve({eq, ic}, G(h))): for j to 17 do g[j] := factor(simplify(rationalize(simplify(subs(h = j, sol))))) end do: H[1] := x*y/(1-x): for j from 2 to 50 do H[j] := factor(g[j]-g[j-1]) end do: for j to 17 do Hser[j] := series(H[j], z = 0, 50) end do: T := proc (n, k) coeff(Hser[k], z, n) end proc: seq(add(k*T(n, k), k = 1 .. n-1), n = 2 .. 45);
