Definition (from A362167): Let Trees(n) be the set of unlabeled trees on n vertices (see A000055). Let T be in Trees(n+1), and let v be a vertex of T. Then a (k,T)-tour beginning at v is a walk that begins and ends at v and traverses each edge of T exactly 2*k times. We denote by N(k,T)(v) the number of (k,T)-tours beginning at v.
The hypergraph Catalan numbers C_k(n) are defined by C_k(n) = Sum_{trees T in T(n+1)} Sum_{vertices v in T} N(k,T)(v)/|Aut(T)|, where Aut(T) denotes the automorphism group of the tree T.
See the Gunnells reference for a full definition and additional information.
