Comments

Also number of ordered trees with n edges and having k leaves that are endpoints of branches of length 1 (i.e. leaf is child of the root or of a branchnode). Row sums are the Catalan numbers (A000108). Column 0 yields A004148. Sum(kT(n,k),k=0..n)=A097613(n).

Formula

G.f.=G=G(t, z) satisfies G=1+zG(G-1+t-tz+z).

Example

T(4,2)=4 because we have uu(ud)(ud)dd, uudd(ud)(ud), (ud)uudd(ud) and
(ud)(ud)uudd (the peaks that are not of the form uudd are shown between parentheses).
