Comments

Row n contains n-1 entries (n>=2).

Sum of entries in row n is the Catalan number A000108(n).

Sum(k*T(n,k), k>=0) = A001791(n-2) (n>=2).

T(21,k) = A243752(21,k), T(n,0) = A243753(n,21) = A247333(n). - Alois P. Heinz, Sep 13 2014

Examples

			Row 4 is 11, 2, 1; indeed in the 14 Dyck paths of semilength 4 ududu occurs only once in ududuudd, once in uudududd, and twice in udududud.

Formula

G.f.: C(z*(1-t*z-z^2+t*z^2)/(1-t*z-z^3+t*z^3)), where C(u) = (1-sqrt(1-4*u))/(2*u) is the Catalan function. See Corollary 2.2 in the Mansour reference.
