FORMULA
Column sums of triangle A129174. The generating polynomial for row n of A129174 is P[n](t) = t^n*binomial[2n,n]/[n+1], where [n+1] = 1 + t + t^2 + ... + t^n and binomial[2n,n] is a Gaussian polynomial (in t).
G.f.: Sum_{n>=0} x^n * Product_{k=2..n} (1 - x^(n+k)) / (1 - x^k). - Paul D. Hanna, Jan 03 2013
EXAMPLE
a(6)=3 because we have (i) UUDUDD with peak-abscissae 2,4; (ii) UDUUUDDD with peak-abscissae 1,5; and (iii) UUUUUUDDDDDD with peak-abscissa 6 (here U=(1,1) and D=(1,-1)).
MAPLE
br:=n->sum(q^i, i=0..n-1): f:=n->product(br(j), j=1..n): cbr:=(n, k)->f(n)/f(k)/f(n-k): P:=n->sort(expand(simplify(q^n*cbr(2*n, n)/br(n+1)))): seq(add(coeff(P(m), q, l), m=0..l), l=0..60);
PROG
(PARI) a(n)=polcoeff(sum(m=0, n, x^m*prod(k=2, m, (1-x^(m+k))/(1-x^k)+x*O(x^n))), n)
