A114499 Triangle read by rows: number of Dyck paths of semilength n having k 3-bridges of a given shape (0<=k<=floor(n/3)). A 3-bridge is a subpath of the form UUUDDD or UUDUDD starting at level 0. 2

COMMENTS
Row n has 1+floor(n/3) terms. Row sums are the Catalan numbers (A000108). Column 0 is A114500. Sum(kT(n,k),k=0..floor(n/3))=Catalan(n-2) (n>=3; A000108).

FORMULA
G.f.=1/(1+z^3-tz^3-zC), where C=[1-sqrt(1-4z)]/(2z) is the Catalan function.
EXAMPLE
T(4,1)=2 because we have UD(UUUDDD) and (UUUDDD)UD (or UD(UUDUDD) and (UUDUDD)UD). The 3-bridges are shown between parentheses.

MAPLE
C:=(1-sqrt(1-4*z))/2/z: G:=1/(1-z*C+z^3-t*z^3): Gser:=simplify(series(G, z=0, 20)): P[0]:=1: for n from 1 to 17 do P[n]:=coeff(Gser, z^n) od: for n from 0 to 17 do seq(coeff(t*P[n], t^j), j=1..1+floor(n/3)) od; # yields sequence in triangular form
