A143953 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of Dyck paths of semilength n having k peaks in their peak plateaux (0<=k<=n-1). A peak plateau is a run of consecutive peaks that is preceded by an upstep and followed by a down step; a peak consists of an upstep followed by a downstep. 2

COMMENTS
Row n has n terms (n>=1).
Row sums are the Catalan numbers (A000108).
T(n,1)=A001906(n-1)=Fibonacci(2n-2).
Sum(k*T(n,k),k=0..n-1))=A143954(n).
For the statistic "number of peak plateaux", see A143952.

FORMULA
The g.f. G=G(t,z) satisfies z(1-z)(1-tz)G^2-(1-z+z^2-tz)G+(1-z)(1-tz) = 0 (for the explicit form of G see the Maple program).
The trivariate g.f. g=g(x,y,z) of Dyck paths with respect to number of peak plateaux, number of peaks in the peak plateaux and semilength, marked, by x, y and z, respectively satisfies g=1+zg[g+xyz/(1-yz)-z/(1-z)].
EXAMPLE
T(4,2)=4 because we have UDU(UDUD)D, U(UDUD)DUD, U(UD)DU(UD)D and UU(UDUD)DD (the peaks in the peak plateaux are shown between parentheses). The triangle starts:

MAPLE
C:=proc(z) options operator, arrow: (1/2-(1/2)*sqrt(1-4*z))/z end proc: G:=(1-z)*(1-t*z)*C(z*(1-z)^2*(1-t*z)^2/(1-z+z^2-t*z)^2)/(1-z+z^2-t*z): Gser:= simplify(series(G, z=0, 15)): for n from 0 to 11 do P[n]:=sort(coeff(Gser, z, n)) end do: 1; for n to 11 do seq(coeff(P[n], t, j), j=0..n-1) end do; # yields sequence in triangular form
