COMMENTS
|
A skew Dyck path is a path in the first quadrant which begins at the origin, ends on the x-axis, consists of steps U=(1,1)(up), D=(1,-1)(down) and L=(-1,-1)(left) so that up and left steps do not overlap. The length of a path is defined to be the number of steps in it.

FORMULA
|
G.f.: 2*z^2/(1-6*z+5*z^2+(1+z)*sqrt(1-6*z+5*z^2)).
D-finite with recurrence: +2*(n-1)*(3*n-8)*a(n) +(-39*n^2+161*n-148)*a(n-1) +(48*n^2-215*n+220)*a(n-2) -5*(3*n-5)*(n-3)*a(n-3)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Jun 17 2016

EXAMPLE
|
a(3) = 4 because we have UDUUDL, UUUDLD, UUDUDL and UUUDLL (the other six skew Dyck paths of semilength are the five Dyck paths and UUUDDL.
