A182891

Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of weighted lattice paths in L_n having k (1,0)-steps of weight 2 at level 0. The members of L_n are paths of weight n that start at (0,0) , end on the horizontal axis and whose steps are of the following four kinds: an (1,0)-step with weight 1, an (1,0)-step with weight 2, a (1,1)-step with weight 2, and a (1,-1)-step with weight 1. The weight of a path is the sum of the weights of its steps.

FORMULA

G.f. G(t,z) =1/[z^2-tz^2+sqrt((1+z+z^2)(1-3z+z^2))].

EXAMPLE

T(3,1)=2. Indeed, denoting by h (H) the (1,0)-step of weight 1 (2), and u=(1,1), d=(1,-1), the five paths of weight 3 are ud, du, hH, Hh, and hhh; two of them, namely hH and Hh, have exactly one H-step at level 0.

MAPLE

G:=1/(z^2-t*z^2+sqrt((1+z+z^2)*(1-3*z+z^2))): Gser:=simplify(series(G, z=0, 18)): for n from 0 to 14 do P[n]:=sort(coeff(Gser, z, n)) od: for n from 0 to 14 do seq(coeff(P[n], t, k), k=0..floor(n/2)) od; # yields sequence in triangular form
