Erdős, Graham et al. conjectured that a(n) is never squarefree for sufficiently large n (cf. Graham, Knuth, Patashnik, Concrete Math., 2nd ed., Exercise 112). Sárközy showed that if s(n) is the square part of a(n), then s(n) is asymptotically (sqrt(2)-2) * (sqrt(n)) * zeta(1/2). Granville and Ramare proved that the only squarefree values are a(1)=2, a(2)=6 and a(4)=70. - Jonathan Vos Post, Dec 04 2004 [For more about this conjecture, see A261009. - N. J. A. Sloane, Oct 25 2015]
The MathOverflow link contains the following comment (slightly edited): The Erdős squarefree conjecture (that a(n) is never squarefree for n>4) was proved in 1980 by Sárközy, A. (On divisors of binomial coefficients. I. J. Number Theory 20 (1985), no. 1, 70-80.) who showed that the conjecture holds for all sufficiently large values of n, and by A. Granville and O. Ramaré (Explicit bounds on exponential sums and the scarcity of squarefree binomial coefficients. Mathematika 43 (1996), no. 1, 73-107) who showed that it holds for all n>4. - Fedor Petrov, Nov 13 2010. [From N. J. A. Sloane, Oct 29 2015]

Also, in sports, the number of ordered ways for a "Best of 2n-1 Series" to progress. For example, a(2) = 6 means there are six ordered ways for a "best of 3" series to progress. If we write A for a win by "team A" and B for a win by "team B" and if we list the played games chronologically from left to right then the six ways are AA, ABA, BAA, BB, BAB, and ABB. (Proof: To generate the a(n) ordered ways: Write down all a(n) ways to designate n of 2n games as won by team A. Remove the maximal suffix of identical letters from each of these.) - Lee A.

Bergot, Oct 07 2012. For example using rows 4 and 5: 2*(1*(1) + 4*(5) + 6*(10) + 4*(10) + 1*(5)) = 252, the sixth term in this sequence.
Take from Pascal's triangle row(n) with terms b1, b2, ..., b(n+1) and row(n+2) with terms c1, c2, ..., c(n+3) and find the sum b1*c2 + b2*c3 + ... + b(n+1)*c(n+2) to get A000984(n+1). Example using row(3) and row(5) gives sum 1*(5)+3*(10)+3*(10)+1*(5) = 70 = A000984(4). - J. M. Bergot, Oct 31 2012

Expansion of G.f. A(x) = 1/(1+q*x*c(x)), where parameter q is positive or negative (except q=-1), and c(x) is the g.f. of A000108 for Catalan numbers. The case of q=-1 recovers the g.f. of A000108 as xA^2-A+1=0. The present sequence A000984 refers to q=-2. Recurrence: (1+q)*(n+2)*a(n+2) + ((q*q-4*q-4)*n + 2*(q*q-q-1))*a(n+1) - 2*q*q*(2*n+1)*a(n) = 0, a(0)=1, a(1)=-q. Asymptotics: a(n) ~ ((q+2)/(q+1))*(q^2/(-q-1))^n, q<=-3, a(n) ~ (-1)^n*((q+2)/(q+1))*(q^2/(q+1))^n, q>=5, and a(n) ~ -Kq*2^(2*n)/sqrt(Pi*n^3), where the multiplicative constant Kq is given by K1=1/9 (q=1), K2=1/8 (q=2), K3=3/25 (q=3), K4=1/9 (q=4). These formulas apply to existing sequences A126983 (q=1), A126984 (q=2), A126982 (q=3), A126986 (q=4), A126987 (q=5), A127017 (q=6), A127016 (q=7), A126985 (q=8), A127053 (q=9), and to A007854 (q=-3), A076035 (q=-4), A076036 (q=-5), A127628 (q=-6), A126694 (q=-7), A115970 (q=-8). (End)
a(n)*(2^n)^(j-2) equals S(n), where S(n) is the n-th number in the self-convolved sequence which yields the powers of 2^j for all integers j, n>=0. For example, when n=5 and j=4, a(5)=252; 252*(2^5)^(4-2) = 252*1024 = 258048. The self-convolved sequence which yields powers of 16 is {1, 8, 96, 1280, 17920, 258048, ...}; i.e., S(5) = 258048. Note that the convolved sequences will be composed of numbers decreasing from 1 to 0, when j<2 (exception being j=1, where the first two numbers in the sequence are 1 and all others decreasing). - Bob Selcoe, Jul 16 2014

a(n) is the number of sets {i1,...,in} of length n such that n >= i1 >= i2 >= ... >= in >= 0. For instance, a(2) = 6 as there are only 6 such sets: (2,2) (2,1) (2,0) (1,1) (1,0) (0,0). - Anton Zakharov, Jul 04 2016

Let s denote West's stack-sorting map. a(n) is the number of permutations pi of [n+1] such that s(pi) avoids the patterns 132, 231, and 321. a(n) is also the number of permutations pi of [n+1] such that s(pi) avoids the patterns 132, 312, and 321.

All binary self-dual codes of length 4n, for n>0, must contain at least a(n) codewords of weight 2n. More to the point, there will always be at least one, perhaps unique, binary self-dual code of length 4n that will contain exactly a(n) codewords that have a hamming weight equal to half the length of the code (2n). This code can be constructed by direct summing the unique binary self-dual code of length 2 (up to permutation equivalence) to itself an even number of times. A permutation equivalent code can be constructed by augmenting two identity matrices of length 2n together. - Nathan J. Russell, Nov 25 2018

Let [b/p] denote the Legendre symbol and 1/b denote the inverse of b mod p. Then, for m and n, where n is not divisible by p,
[(m+n)/p] == [n/p]*Sum_{k=0..(p-1)/2} (-m/(4*n))^k * a(k) (mod p).
Evaluating this identity for m = -1 and n = 1 demonstrates that, for all odd primes p, Sum_{k=0..(p-1)/2} (1/4)^k * a(k) is divisible by p. (End)

a(n) is the number of nx2 Young tableaux with a single horizontal wall between the first and second column. If there is a wall between two cells, the entries may be decreasing; see [Banderier, Wallner 2021].

a(n)/4^n is the probability that a fair coin tossed 2n times will come up heads exactly n times and tails exactly n times, or that a random walk with steps of +-1 will return to the starting point after 2n steps (not necessarily for the first time). As n becomes large, this number asymptotically approaches 1/sqrt(n*Pi), using Stirling's approximation for n!.
a(n)/(4^n*(2n-1)) is the probability that a random walk with steps of +-1 will return to the starting point for the first time after 2n steps. The absolute value of the n-th term of A144704 is denominator of this fraction.
Considering all possible random walks of exactly 2n steps with steps of +-1, a(n)/(2n-1) is the number of such walks that return to the starting point for the first time after 2n steps. See the absolute values of A002420 or A284016 for these numbers. For comparison, as mentioned by Stefan Hollos, Dec 10 2007, a(n) is the number of such walks that return to the starting point after 2n steps, but not necessarily for the first time. (End)

The number of distinct permutations of the initial stack that can be reached through these operations is a(n). - Thomas Baruchel, May 12 2025

The entries in this triangle (in its many forms) are often called ballot numbers.
T(n,k) = number of standard tableaux of shape (n,k) (n > 0, 0 <= k <= n). Example: T(3,1) = 3 because we have 134/2, 124/3 and 123/4. - Emeric Deutsch, May 18 2004
T(n,k) is the number of full binary trees with n+1 internal nodes and jump-length k. In the preorder traversal of a full binary tree, any transition from a node at a deeper level to a node on a strictly higher level is called a jump; the positive difference of the levels is called the jump distance; the sum of the jump distances in a given ordered tree is called the jump-length. - Emeric Deutsch, Jan 18 2007
The k-th diagonal from the right (k=1, 2, ...) gives the sequence obtained by asking in how many ways can we toss a fair coin until we first get k more heads than tails. The k-th diagonal has formula k(2m+k-1)!/(m!(m+k)!) and g.f. (C(x))^k where C(x) is the generating function for the Catalan numbers, (1-sqrt(1-4*x))/(2*x). - Anthony C Robin, Jul 12 2007
T(n,k) is also the number of order-decreasing and order-preserving full transformations (of an n-element chain) of waist k (waist (alpha) = max(Im(alpha))). - Abdullahi Umar, Aug 25 2008
Formatted as an upper right triangle (see tables) a(c,r) is the number of different triangulated planar polygons with c+2 vertices, with triangle degree c-r+1 for the same vertex X (c=column number, r=row number, with c >= r >= 1). - Patrick Labarque, Jul 28 2010
The triangle sums, see A180662 for their definitions, link Catalan's triangle, its mirror is A033184, with several sequences, see crossrefs. - Johannes W. Meijer, Sep 22 2010
The m-th row of Catalan's triangle consists of the unique nonnegative differences of the form binomial(m+k,m)-binomial(m+k,m+1) with 0 <= k <= m (See Links). - R. J. Cano, Jul 22 2014
T(n,k) is also the number of nondecreasing parking functions of length n+1 whose maximum element is k+1. For example T(3,2) = 5 because we have (1,1,1,3), (1,1,2,3), (1,2,2,3), (1,1,3,3), (1,2,3,3). - Ran Pan, Nov 16 2015
T(n,k) is the number of Dyck paths from (0,0) to (n+2,n+2) which start with n-k+2 east steps and touch the diagonal y=x only on the last north step. - Felipe Rueda, Sep 18 2019
T(n-1,k) for k < n is number of well-formed strings of n parenthesis pairs with prefix of exactly n-k opening parenthesis; T(n,n) = T(n,n-1). - Hermann Stamm-Wilbrandt, May 02 2021

Number of ways to put n indistinguishable balls into 2*n distinguishable boxes.
Number of rankings of n unlabeled elements for 2*n levels.

Examples

			Let [1,1,1], [1,2] and [3] be the integer partitions of n=3.
Then [0,0,0,1,1,1], [0,0,0,0,1,2] and [0,0,0,0,0,3] are the corresponding partitions occupying 2*n = 6 positions.
We have to take into account the multiplicities of the parts including the multiplicities of the zeros.
Then
  [0,0,0,1,1,1] --> 6!/(3!*3!) = 20
  [0,0,0,0,1,2] --> 6!/(4!*1!*1!) = 30
  [0,0,0,0,0,3] --> 6!/(5!*1!) = 6
and thus a(3) = 20+30+6=56.
a(2)=10, since we have 10 ordered partitions of n=2 where the parts are distributed over 2*n=4 boxes:
  [0, 0, 0, 2]
  [0, 0, 1, 1]
  [0, 0, 2, 0]
  [0, 1, 0, 1]
  [0, 1, 1, 0]
  [0, 2, 0, 0]
  [1, 0, 0, 1]
  [1, 0, 1, 0]
  [1, 1, 0, 0]
  [2, 0, 0, 0].

d(i) = the number of different parts of the i-th partition of n,
m(i,j) = multiplicity of the j-th part of the i-th partition of n.
Then one has:
a(n) = Sum_{i=1..P(n)} (2*n)!/((2*n-p(i))!*(Prod_{j=1..d(i)} m(i,j)!)).

From Gus Wiseman, May 02 2021: (Start)
Conjecture: The number of divisors of n^n equals the number of pairwise coprime ordered n-tuples of divisors of n. Confirmed up to n = 30. For example, the a(1) = 1 through a(5) = 6 tuples are:
(1) (1,1) (1,1,1) (1,1,1,1) (1,1,1,1,1)
(1,2) (1,1,3) (1,1,1,2) (1,1,1,1,5)
(2,1) (1,3,1) (1,1,1,4) (1,1,1,5,1)
(3,1,1) (1,1,2,1) (1,1,5,1,1)
(1,1,4,1) (1,5,1,1,1)
(1,2,1,1) (5,1,1,1,1)
(1,4,1,1)
(2,1,1,1)
(4,1,1,1)
The unordered case (pairwise coprime n-multisets of divisors of n) is counted by A343654.

Read as a square array this is the Hilbert transform of triangle A123125 (see A145905 for the definition of this term). For example, the fourth row of A123125 is (0,1,4,1) and the expansion (x + 4*x^2 + x^3)/(1-x)^4 = x + 8*x^2 + 27*x^3 + 64*x^4 + ... generates the entries in the fourth row of this array read as a square. - Peter Bala, Oct 28 2008

Sometimes called a Catalan triangle, although there are many other triangles that carry that name - see A009766, A008315, A028364, A033184, A053121, A059365, A062103.
Number of nodes of outdegree k in all ordered trees with n edges. Equivalently, number of ascents of length k in all Dyck paths of semilength n. Example: T(3,2) = 3 because the Dyck paths of semilength 3 are UDUDUD, UD(UU)DD, (UU)DDUD, (UU)DUDD and UUUDDD, where U = (1,1), D = (1,-1), the ascents of length 2 being shown between parentheses. - Emeric Deutsch, Nov 19 2006
Riordan array (f(x), x*g(x)) where f(x) is the g.f. of A088218 and g(x) is the g.f. of A000108. - Philippe Deléham, Jan 23 2010
T(n,k) is the number of nonnegative paths of upsteps U = (1,1) and downsteps D = (1,-1) of length 2*n with k returns to ground level, the horizontal line through the initial vertex. Example: T(2,1) = 2 counts UDUU, UUDD. Also, T(n,k) = number of these paths whose last descent has length k, that is, k downsteps follow the last upstep. Example: T(2,1) = 2 counts UUUD, UDUD. - David Callan, Nov 21 2011
Belongs to the hitting-time subgroup of the Riordan group. Multiplying this triangle by the square Pascal matrix gives A092392 read as a square array. See the example below. - Peter Bala, Nov 03 2015

Formula

From Peter Bala, Sep 06 2015: (Start)
Matrix product A094527 * P^(-1) = A113955 * P^(-2), where P denotes Pascal's triangle A007318.
Essentially, the logarithmic derivative of A033184. (End)
Let column(k) = [T(n, k), n >= k], then the generating function for column(k) is (2/(sqrt(1-4*x)+1))^(k-1)/sqrt(1-4*x). - Peter Luschny, Mar 19 2021
O.g.f. row polynomials R(n, x) := Sum_{k=0..n} T(n, k)*x^k, i.e. o.g.f. of the triangle, G(z,x) = 1/((2 - c(z))*(1 - x*z*c(z))), with c the o.g.f. of A000108 (Catalan). See the Riordan coomment by Philippe Deléham above. - Wolfdieter Lang, Apr 06 2021
