Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%N a(n) = floor( Catalan(2*n) / Catalan(n)^2 ).
%C This sequence is (roughly) the relative size of the Jones monoid J_n to its minimal ideal. Equivalently, this is roughly the reciprocal of the proportion of Dyck words of length 4n which can be factorized into two Dyck words, each of length 2n.
