FORMULA
|
a(n) = Sum_{k>=0} k*A191781(n,k).
G.f.: z*c*(1+z*c^2)/((1-z)*(1-z*c)), where c = (1-sqrt(1 -4*z^2)) / (2*z^2).
a(n) ~ 3*2^(n+1/2)/sqrt(Pi*n). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Mar 21 2014
Conjecture: -(n+3)*(6*n-17)*a(n) +2*(6*n^2-2*n-57)*a(n-1) +3*(6*n^2-17*n+27)*a(n-2) -2*(2*n-3)*(12*n-25)*a(n-3) +4*(6*n-11)*(n-3)*a(n-4)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Jun 14 2016

|
EXAMPLE
|
a(4)=13 because in UDUD, UDUU, UUDD, UUDU, UUUD, and UUUU the sum of the lengths of the first ascents is 1 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 13.
