Number of Dyck paths of semilength n, having k uu's with midpoint at even height. Example: T(4,1) = 6 because we have u(uu)duddd, u(uu)udddd, udu(uu)ddd, u(uu)dddud, u(uu)ddudd and uud(uu)ddd [here u = (1,1), d = (1,-1) and the uu's with midpoint at even height are shown between parentheses]. Row sums are the Catalan numbers (A000108). T(2n+1,n) = A000108(n) (the Catalan numbers). Sum_{k>=0} k*T(n,k) = binomial(2n-2,n-3) = A002694(n-1).
Sometimes called the Touchard distribution (after Touchard's Catalan number identity). T(n,k) = number of full binary trees on 2n edges with k deep interior vertices (deep interior means you have to traverse at least 2 edges to reach a leaf) = number of binary trees on n-1 edges with k vertices having a full complement of 2 children. - David Callan, Jul 19 2004
T(n,k) = number of ordered trees on n edges with k prolific edges. A prolific edge is one whose child vertex has at least two children. For example with n=3, drawing ordered trees down from the root, /|\ has no prolific edge and the only tree with one prolific edge has the shape of an inverted Y, so T(3,1)=1.
Proof: Consider the following bijection, recorded by Emeric Deutsch, from ordered trees on n edges to Dyck n-paths. For a given ordered tree, traverse the tree in preorder (walk-around from root order). To each node of outdegree r there correspond r upsteps followed by 1 downstep; nothing corresponds to the last leaf. This bijection sends prolific edges to noninitial ascents of length >=2, that is, to DUU's. Then reverse the resulting Dyck n-path so that prolific edges correspond to DDU's. (End)
T(n,k) is the number of Łukasiewicz paths of length n having k fall steps (1,-1) that start at an even level. A Łukasiewicz path of length n is a path in the first quadrant from (0,0) to (n,0) using rise steps (1,k) for any positive integer k, level steps (1,0) and fall steps (1,-1) (see R. P. Stanley, Enumerative Combinatorics, Vol. 2, Cambridge Univ. Press, Cambridge, 1999, p. 223, Exercise 6.19w; the integers are the slopes of the steps). Example: T(3,1) = 1 because we have U(2)(D)D, where U(2) = (1,2), D = (1,-1) and the fall steps that start at an even level are shown between parentheses. Row n contains ceiling(n/2) terms (n >= 1). - Emeric Deutsch, Jan 06 2005
Number of binary trees with n-1 edges and k+1 leaves (a binary tree is a rooted tree in which each vertex has at most two children and each child of a vertex is designated as its left or right child). - Emeric Deutsch, Jul 31 2006
Number of full binary trees with 2n edges and k+1 vertices both children of which are leaves (n >= 1; a full binary tree is a rooted tree in which each vertex has either 0 or two children). - Emeric Deutsch, Dec 26 2006
Number of ordered trees with n edges and k jumps. In the preorder traversal of an ordered tree, any transition from a node at a deeper level to a node on a strictly higher level is called a jump. - Emeric Deutsch, Jan 18 2007
It is remarkable that we can generate the coefficients of the right hand columns of triangle A175136 with the aid of the coefficients in the rows of the triangle given above. See A175136 for more information. - Johannes W. Meijer, May 06 2011
This array also counts 231-avoiding permutations according to the number of peaks, i.e., positions w[i-1] < w[i] > w[i+1]. For example, 123, 213, 312, and 321 have no peaks, while 132 has one peak. Note also T(n,k) = 2^(n - 1 - 2*k)*A055151(n-1,k). - Kyle Petersen, Aug 02 2013

FORMULA

T(n,k) = 2^(n - 2*k - 1)*binomial(n-1,2*k)*binomial(2*k,k)/(k + 1), T(0,0) = 1, for 0 <= k <= floor((n-1)/2).
G.f.: G = G(t,z) satisfies: t*z*G^2 - (1 - 2*z + 2*t*z)*G + 1 - z + t*z = 0.
With first row zero, the o.g.f. is g(x,t) = (1 - 2*x - sqrt((1 - 2*x)^2 - 4*t*x^2)) / (2*t*x) with the inverse ginv(x,t) = x / (1 + 2*x + t*x^2), an o.g.f. for shifted A207538 and A133156 mod signs, so A134264 and A125181 can be used to interpret the polynomials of this entry. Cf. A097610. - Tom Copeland, Feb 08 2016
If we delete the first 1 from the data these are the coefficients of the polynomials p(n) = 2^n*hypergeom([(1 - n)/2, - n/2], [2], x). - Peter Luschny, Jan 23 2018
