A121462 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of nondecreasing Dyck paths of semilength n, having pyramid weight k (1<=k<=n). A pyramid in a Dyck word (path) is a factor of the form U^h D^h, where U=(1,1), D=(1,-1) and h is the height of the pyramid. A pyramid in a Dyck word w is maximal if, as a factor in w, it is not immediately preceded by a u and immediately followed by a d. The pyramid weight of a Dyck path (word) is the sum of the heights of its maximal pyramids. +0

COMMENT

Row sums are the odd-subscripted Fibonacci numbers (A001519). T(n,n)=2^(n-1). Sum(k*T(n,k),k=1..n)=A030267(n)

FORMULA

T(n,k)=Sum(binomial(k-1,j)*binomial(n-k-1+j,j-1), j=0..k-1) for 2<=k<=n; T(1,1)=1; T(n,1)=0 for n>=2. G.f.=G=G(t,z)=tz(1-z)/(1-2tz-z+tz^2).

T(n+1,k+1)=A062110(n,k)*2^(2*k-n) . - Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Aug 01 2006

EXAMPLE

T(4,3)=4 because we have (UD)U(UD)(UD)D, U(UD)(UD)(UD)D, U(UD)(UUDD)D and U(UUDD)(UD)D, where U=(1,1) and D=(1,-1) (the maximal pyramids are shown between parentheses).

MAPLE

T:=proc(n, k) if n=1 and k=1 then 1 elif k=1 then 0 elif k<=n then sum(binomial(k-1, j)*binomial(n-k-1+j, j-1), j=0..k-1) else 0 fi end: for n from 1 to 13 do seq(T(n, k), k=1..n) od; # yields sequence in triangular form
