cp's OEIS Frontend

This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

Formula

G.f.: 1/(1 - x/(1 - x^3/(1 - x^5/(1 - x^7/(1 - x^9/(1 - ...
Derivation: the g.f. G(x,z) of Dyck paths, where x marks area and z marks semilength, satisfies G(x,z)=1+x*z*G(x,z)*G(x,x^2*z). Set z=1.
From Peter Bala, Dec 26 2012: (Start)
Let F(x) denote the o.g.f. of this sequence. For positive integer n >= 3, the real number F(1/n) has the simple continued fraction expansion 1 + 1/(n-2 + 1/(1 + 1/(n^2-2 + 1/(1 + 1/(n^3-2 + 1/(1 + ...)))))).
For n >= 1, F(-1/n) has the simple continued fraction expansion
1/(1 + 1/(n + 1/(n^2 + 1/(n^3 + ...)))). Examples are given below. Cf. A005169 and A111317.

Number of rough sandpiles: 1-dimensional sandpiles (see A186085) with n grains without flat steps (no two successive parts of the corresponding composition equal), see example. - Joerg Arndt, Mar 08 2014
The sequence of such sandpiles by base length starts (n>=0) 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 2, 0, 5, 0, 14, 0, 42, 0, ... (A097331, essentially A000108 with interlaced zeros). This is a consequence of the obvious connection to Dyck paths, see example. - Joerg Arndt, Mar 09 2014
a(n>=1) are the Dyck paths with area n between the x-axis and the path which return to the x-axis only once (at their end), whereas A143951 includes paths with intercalated touches of the x-axis. - R. J. Mathar, Aug 22 2018
