A121465

Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of nondecreasing Dyck paths of semilength n such that the sum of the heights of their triangles is k (0<=k<=n). A triangle in a Dyck path is a subpath of the form U^h D^h, starting at the x-axis; here U=(1,1), D=(1,-1), h being the height of the triangle.

COMMENTS

Row sums are the odd-subscripted Fibonacci numbers (A001519). T(n,0)=fibonacci(2n-3)-1=A027941(n-2). Sum(k*T(n,k),k=0..n)=fibonacci(2n+1)-1=A027941(n).

FORMULA

T(n,0)=fibonacci(2*n-3)-1; T(n,k)=2^(k-1)*(fibonacci(2n-2k-3)-1) for 1<=k<=n. G.f.=G=G(t,z)=(1-2z)^2*(1-tz)/[(1-3z+z^2)(1-z)(1-2tz)].

EXAMPLE

T(5,2)=2 because we have (UD)(UD)UUDUDD and (UUDD)UUDUDD, where U=(1,1) and D=(1,-1) (the triangles are shown between parentheses).

MAPLE

with(combinat): T:=proc(n, k) if k=0 then fibonacci(2*n-3)-1 elif k<=n then 2^(k-1)*(fibonacci(2*n-2*k-3)-1) else 0 fi end: for n from 0 to 12 do seq(T(n, k), k=0..n) od; # yields sequence in triangular form
