|
Level of the first leaf (in preorder traversal) of a binary tree, summed over all binary trees with n edges. A binary tree is a rooted tree in which each vertex has at most two children and each child of a vertex is designated as its left or right child.

a(n) is the number of lattice paths from (0,0) to (n+2,n+2) using E(1,0) and N(0,1) as steps that have exactly two E steps below subdiagonal y = x-1. - Ran Pan, Feb 01 2016
a(n) is the number of permutations pi of [n+3] such that s(pi)=p456...(n+3), where s is West's stack-sorting map and p=132. The same statement is true if p=231 or p=312. - Colin Defant, Jan 14 2019

FORMULA
|
a(n) = Sum_{k=1..n} k*A120988(n,k).
a(n) = 2*n*(7n+13)*binomial(2n+1,n)/((n+2)(n+3)(n+4)).
G.f.: z*(1+C)*C^4, where C = (1-sqrt(1-4*z))/(2z) is the Catalan function.
G.f.: 2*(1+2*z-sqrt(1-4*z))/(1-2*z+sqrt(1-4*z))^2.
D-finite with recurrence -(n-1)*(7*n+6)*(n+4)*a(n) +2*n*(7*n+13)*(2*n+1)*a(n-1)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Aug 22 2016
a(n) ~ c*4^n*n^(-3/2), with c = 28/sqrt(Pi). - Stefano Spezia, Oct 19 2023

EXAMPLE
|
a(1)=2 because for each of the trees / and \ the level of the first leaf is 1.
