A187260 Number of uh^jd's for some j>0, starting at level 0, where u=(1,1), h=(1,0), and d=(1,-1), in all peakless Motzkin paths of length n (can be easily expressed using RNA secondary structure terminology). 1

%C The terms a(n), starting from n=3, are the partial sums of the sequence A089735.

%F G.f.: z^3*g^2/(1-z), where g=1+z*g+z^2*g*(g-1).

%F a(n) = Sum_{k>=0} k*A098071(n,k).

%F From _Vaclav Kotesovec_, May 29 2022: (Start)

%F G.f.: (-1 + x - x^2 + sqrt((1 + (-3 + x)*x) * (1 + x + x^2)))^2 / (4*(1-x)*x).

%F a(n) ~ 5^(1/4) * phi^(2*n-1) / (sqrt(Pi) * n^(3/2)), where phi = A001622 is the golden ratio. (End)

%F D-finite with recurrence (n+1)*a(n) +(-4*n+1)*a(n-1) +(5*n-8)*a(n-2) +(-5*n+18)*a(n-3) +(5*n-22)*a(n-4) +(-5*n+32)*a(n-5) +(4*n-31)*a(n-6) +(-n+9)*a(n-7)=0. - _R. J. Mathar_, Jul 22 2022

%e a(4)=3 because the 4 (=A004148(4)) peakless Motzkin paths of length 4, namely hhhh, h(uhd), (uhd)h, and (uhhd) contain 0+1+1+1 subwords of type uh^ju for some j>0, starting at level 0 (shown between parentheses.
