COMMENTS

B(n) is the set of lattice paths of weight n that start in (0,0), end on the horizontal axis and never go below this axis, whose steps are of the following four kinds: h = (1,0) of weight 1, H = (1,0) of weight 2, u = (1,1) of weight 2, and d = (1,-1) of weight 1. The weight of a path is the sum of the weights of its steps.

FORMULA

G.f. G = G(z) satisfies G = 1 + z*G + z^2*G + z^3*G*(G - z^2).
D-finite with recurrence +(n+3)*a(n) +(-2*n-3)*a(n-1) -n*a(n-2) +(-2*n+3)*a(n-3) +(n-3)*a(n-4) +(2*n-9)*a(n-5) +2*(-n+6)*a(n-6) +(-2*n+15)*a(n-7) +(n-12)*a(n-10)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Jul 26 2022

EXAMPLE
|
a(6)=35 because among the 37 (=A004148(7)) members of B(6) only huHd and uHdh contain uHd.
