Smallest number of straight line crossing-free spanning trees on n points in the plane.

With interpolated zeros, this has g.f. 2*sqrt(3)*sin(arcsin(3*sqrt(3)*x/2)/3)/(3*x) and a(n) = C(n+floor(n/2),floor(n/2))*C(floor(n/2),n-floor(n/2))/(n+1). This is the first column of the inverse of the Riordan array (1-x^2,x(1-x^2)) (essentially reversion of y-y^3). - Paul Barry, Feb 02 2005
Number of 12312-avoiding matchings on [2n].
Number of complete ternary trees with n internal nodes, or 3n edges.
Number of rooted plane trees with 2n edges, where every vertex has even outdegree ("even trees").
a(n) is the number of noncrossing partitions of [2n] with all blocks of even size. E.g.: a(2)=3 counts 12-34, 14-23, 1234. - David Callan, Mar 30 2007

Also 3-Raney sequence, see the Graham et al. reference, p. 346-7.
The number of lattice paths from (0,0) to (2n,0) using an Up-step=(1,1) and a Down-step=(0,-2) and staying above the x-axis. E.g., a(2) = 3; UUUUDD, UUUDUD, UUDUUD. - Charles Moore (chamoore(AT)howard.edu), Jan 09 2008
a(n) is (conjecturally) the number of permutations of [n+1] that avoid the patterns 4-2-3-1 and 4-2-5-1-3 and end with an ascent. For example, a(4)=55 counts all 60 permutations of [5] that end with an ascent except 42315, 52314, 52413, 53412, all of which contain a 4-2-3-1 pattern and 42513. - David Callan, Jul 22 2008

With B(x,t)=x+t*x^3, the comp. inverse in x about 0 is A(x,t) = Sum_{j>=0} a(j) (-t)^j x^(2j+1). Let U(x,t)=(x-A(x,t))/t. Then DU(x,t)/Dt=dU/dt+U*dU/dx=0 and U(x,0)=x^3, i.e., U is a solution of the inviscid Burgers's, or Hopf, equation. Also U(x,t)=U(x-t*U(x,t),0) and dB(x,t)/dt = U(B(x,t),t) = x^3 = U(x,0). The characteristics for the Hopf equation are x(t) = x(0) + t*U(x(t),t) = x(0) + t*U(x(0),0) = x(0) + t*x(0)^3 = B(x(0),t). These results apply to all the Fuss-Catalan sequences with 3 replaced by n>0 and 2 by n-1 (e.g., A000108 with n=2 and A002293 with n=4), see also A086810, which can be generalized to A133437, for associahedra. - Tom Copeland, Feb 15 2014

Number of sum-indecomposable (4231,42513)-avoiding permutations. Conjecturally, number of sum-indecomposable (2431,45231)-avoiding permutations. - Alexander Burstein, Oct 19 2017

Interpretations of these sequences in terms of the cardinality of specific sets of noncrossing partitions are provided by A134264. - Tom Copeland, Dec 21 2019

a(n) = number of ways to connect 2*n - 2 points labeled 1, 2, ..., 2*n-2 in a line with 0 or more noncrossing arcs above the line such that each maximal contiguous sequence of isolated points has even length. For example, with arcs separated by dashes, a(3) = 7 counts {} (no arcs), 12, 14, 23, 34, 12-34, 14-23. It does not count 13 because 2 is an isolated point. - David Callan, Sep 18 2007
In my 2003 paper I introduced L-algebras. These are K-vector spaces equipped with two binary operations > and < satisfying (x > y) < z = x > (y < z). In my arXiv paper math-ph/0709.3453 I show that the free L-algebra on one generator is related to symmetric ternary trees with odd degrees, so the dimensions of the homogeneous components are 1, 2, 7, 30, 143, .... These L-algebras are closely related to the so-called triplicial-algebras, 3 associative operations and 3 relations whose free object is related to even trees. - Philippe Leroux (ph_ler_math(AT)yahoo.com), Oct 05 2007

If f(x) is the generating function for (-1)^n*a(n), a real solution of the equation y^3 - y^2 - x = 0 is given by y = 1 + x*f(x). In particular 1 + f(1) is Narayana's cow constant, A092526, aka the "supergolden" ratio. - R. James Evans, Aug 09 2023

a(n) = Integral_{x=0..27/4} x^n*W(x) dx, where
W(x) = (((9 + sqrt(81 - 12*x))^(2/3) - (9 - sqrt(81 - 12*x))^(2/3)) * 2^(1/3) * 3^(1/6)) / (12 * Pi * x^(1/3)), for x in (0, 27/4).
This integral representation is unique as W(x) is the solution of the Hausdorff power moment problem. Using only the definition of a(n), W(x) can be proven to be positive. W(x) is singular at x = 0, with the singularity x^(-1/3), and for x > 0 is monotonically decreasing to zero at x = 27/4. At x = 27/4 the first derivative of W(x) is infinite. (End)

G.f.: (Sum_{n >= 0} binomial(3*n+2, n)*x^n) / (Sum_{n >= 0} binomial(3*n, n)*x^n) = (B(x) - 1)/(x*B(x)), where B(x) = Sum_{n >= 0} binomial(3*n, n)/(2*n+1) * x^n is the g.f. of A001764. - Peter Bala, Dec 13 2024
The g.f. A(x) is uniquely determined by the conditions A(0) = 1 and [x^n] A(x)^(-n) = -2 for all n >= 1. Cf. A006632. - Peter Bala, Jul 24 2025

The Fuss-Catalan triangle of order m is a regular, (0, 0)-based table recursively defined as follows: Set row(0) = [1] and row(1) = [0, 1]. Now assume row(n-1) already constructed and duplicate the last element of row(n-1). Next apply the cumulative sum m times to this list to get row(n). Here m = 2. (See the Python program for a reference implementation.)

This definition also includes the Fuss-Catalan numbers A001764(n) = T(n, n), or row 3 in A355262. For m = 1 see A355173 and for m = 3 A355174. More generally, for n >= 1 all Fuss-Catalan sequences (A355262(n, k), k >= 0) are the main diagonals of the Fuss-Catalan triangles of order n - 1.
