%N Number of Delannoy paths of length n with no (1,1)-steps on the line y=x.

%C A Delannoy path of length n is a path from (0,0) to (n,n), consisting of steps E=(1,0), N=(0,1) and D=(1,1).

%C Equals left border of triangle A152250 and INVERTi transform of A001850, the Delannoy numbers: (1, 3, 13, 63, 321, ...). - _Gary W. Adamson_, Nov 30 2008

%C Hankel transform is A036442. First column of Riordan array ((1-x)/(1+x), x/(1+3x+2x^2))^{-1}. - _Paul Barry_, Apr 27 2009

%F G.f.: 1/(z + sqrt(1 - 6*z + z^2)).

%F Moment representation: a(n) = 0^n/3 + (1/Pi)*Integral_{x=3-2*sqrt(2)..3+2*sqrt(2)} x^n*sqrt(-x^2+6x-1)/(x*(6-x)) dx. - _Paul Barry_, Apr 27 2009

%F From _Gary W. Adamson_, Aug 23 2011: (Start)

%F a(n) is the upper left term in M^n, M = an infinite square production matrix as follows:

%F 2, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, ...

%F 2, 1, 2, 0, 0, 0, ...

%F 2, 1, 1, 2, 0, 0, ...

%F 2, 1, 1, 1, 2, 0, ...

%F 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, ...

%F ... (End)

%F D-finite with recurrence: n*a(n) = 3*(4*n-3)*a(n-1) - (37*n-57)*a(n-2) + 6*(n-3)*a(n-3). - _Vaclav Kotesovec_, Oct 18 2012

%F a(n) ~ 2^(1/4) * (1 + sqrt(2))^(2*n+3) / (sqrt(Pi) * n^(3/2)). - _Vaclav Kotesovec_, Oct 18 2012, simplified Dec 24 2017

%e a(2)=8 because we have NDE, EDN, NENE, NEEN, ENNE, ENEN, NNEE and EENN.

%p g:=1/(z+sqrt(1-6*z+z^2)): gser:=series(g,z=0,28): 1,seq(coeff(gser,z^n),n=1..25);

%t CoefficientList[Series[1/(x+Sqrt[1-6*x+x^2]), {x, 0, 20}], x] (* _Vaclav Kotesovec_, Oct 18 2012 *)

%Y First column of A109979.

%Y Cf. A152250.

%K nonn

%O 0,2
