FORMULA
|
Conjectured formula for n>=3.
M(n)= number of semi meanders solutions for n top arches. A000682.
r(x)= number of top arches with no covering arch for solution x of M(n).
Example: /\ r(x)=3
/\/\//\\
h(x)= number of top arches with length =1 for solution x of M(n).
Example: /\
/\/\//\\ h(x)=3
i(x)= number of uncovered top arches with length =1 and in an internal position for solution x of M(n). Example:() /\ i(x)=1
/\(/\)//\\
a(n+1)= sum of x=1 to M(n)for [r(x)*h(x)-i(x)] + 2*M(n)-2*M(n-1)
a(5)=(3*3-1)+(3*3-1)+(2*2-0)+(2*2-0)+2*4-2*2= 28.
