Number of paths from (0,0) to (n,n) in an n X n grid using only steps north, northeast and east (i.e., steps (1,0), (1,1), and (0,1)).
Also the number of ways of aligning two sequences (e.g., of nucleotides or amino acids) of length n, with at most 2*n gaps (-) inserted, so that while unnecessary gappings: - -a a- - are forbidden, both b- and -b are allowed. (If only other of the latter is allowed, then the sequence A000984 gives the number of alignments.) There is an easy bijection from grid walks given by Dickau to such set of alignments (e.g., the straight diagonal corresponds to the perfect alignment with no gaps). - Antti Karttunen, Oct 10 2001
Also main diagonal of array A008288 defined by m(i,1) = m(1,j) = 1, m(i,j) = m(i-1,j-1) + m(i-1,j) + m(i,j-1). - Benoit Cloitre, May 03 2002
So, as a special case of Dmitry Zaitsev's Dec 10 2015 comment on A008288, a(n) is the number of points in Z^n that are L1 (Manhattan) distance <= n from any given point. These terms occur in the crystal ball sequences: a(n) here is the n-th term in the sequence for the n-dimensional cubic lattice. See A008288 for a list of crystal ball sequences (rows or columns of A008288). - Shel Kaphan, Dec 26 2022
a(n) is the number of n-matchings of a comb-like graph with 2*n teeth. Example: a(2) = 13 because the graph consisting of a horizontal path ABCD and the teeth Aa, Bb, Cc, Dd has 13 2-matchings: any of the six possible pairs of teeth and {Aa, BC}, {Aa, CD}, {Bb, CD}, {Cc, AB}, {Dd, AB}, {Dd, BC}, {AB, CD}. - Emeric Deutsch, Jul 02 2002
Number of ordered trees with 2*n+1 edges, having root of odd degree, nonroot nodes of outdegree at most 2 and branches of odd length. - Emeric Deutsch, Aug 02 2002
The sum of the first n coefficients of ((1 - x) / (1 - 2*x))^n is a(n-1). - Michael Somos, Sep 28 2003
Row sums of A063007 and A105870. - Paul Barry, Apr 23 2005
The Hankel transform (see A001906 for definition) of this sequence is A036442: 1, 4, 32, 512, 16384, ... . - Philippe Deléham, Jul 03 2005
Also number of paths from (0,0) to (n,0) using only steps U = (1,1), H = (1,0) and D =(1,-1), U can have 2 colors and H can have 3 colors. - N-E. Fahssi, Jan 27 2008
Equals row sums of triangle A152250 and INVERT transform of A109980: (1, 2, 8, 36, 172, 852, ...). - Gary W. Adamson, Nov 30 2008
Number of overpartitions in the n X n box (treat a walk of the type in the first comment as an overpartition, by interpreting a NE step as N, E with the part thus created being overlined). - William J. Keith, May 19 2017
Diagonal of rational functions 1/(1 - x - y - x*y), 1/(1 - x - y*z - x*y*z). - Gheorghe Coserea, Jul 03 2018
Dimensions of endomorphism algebras End(R^{(n)}) in the Delannoy category attached to the oligomorphic group of order preserving self-bijections of the real line. - Noah Snyder, Mar 22 2023
a(n) is the number of ways to tile a strip of length n with white squares, black squares, and red dominos, where we must have an equal number of white and black squares. - Greg Dresden and Leo Zhang, Jul 11 2025

The condition that the columns be in decreasing order is equivalent to considering nonequivalent matrices with distinct columns up to permutation of columns.

A(n,k) is the number of labeled n-uniform hypergraphs with k edges and no isolated vertices. When n=2 these objects are graphs.

A Schroeder path is a lattice path starting from (0,0), ending at a point on the x-axis, consisting only of steps U=(1,1), D=(1,-1) and H=(2,0) and never going below the x-axis. Schroeder paths are counted by the large Schroeder numbers (A006318). A trapezoid in a Schroeder path is a factor of the form U^i H^j D^i (i>=1, j>=0), i being the height of the trapezoid. A trapezoid in a Schroeder path w is maximal if, as a factor in w, it is not immediately preceded by a U and immediately followed by a D. The trapezoid weight of a Schroeder path is the sum of the heights of its maximal trapezoids. For example, in the Schroeder path w=UH(UHD)D(UUDD) we have two trapezoids (shown between parentheses) of heights 1 and 2, respectively. The trapezoid weight of w is 1+2=3. This concept is an analogous to the concept of pyramid weight in a Dyck path (see the Denise-Simion paper). Partial sums of A047665 which, in turn, are the partial sums of A002002.

			a(2) = 7 because the six Schroeder paths of length 4, namely HH,(UD)H,H(UD),(UHD), (UD)(UD) and (UUDD), have trapezoid weights 0,1,1,1,2 and 2, respectively; the maximal trapezoids are shown between parentheses.
