Let $F_n$ be A000045 (i.e., Fibonacci numbers). Here $$ F_n = F_{n-1} + F_{n-2}, \\ F_0 = 0, F_1 = 1. $$ Let $C_n$ be A000108 (i.e., Catalan numbers). Here $$ C_n = \frac{1}{n+1}\binom{2n}{n}. $$ Let $...

Let $f(n)$ be A007814, the exponent of the highest power of $2$ dividing $n$, a.k.a. the binary carry sequence, the ruler sequence, or the $2$-adic valuation of $n$. Let $g(n)$ be A025480, $g(2n) = n$...

How to compute this series: $$\sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{C_k}{2^{2k+1}}$$ where $C_k$ is the catalan number: $C_k=\frac{1}{k+1}{2k \choose k}$. (Further, is there any general method to treat this ...

Let $C_n$ be the $n$-th Catalan Number and let $\mathcal{O}_{s,j} = {{2s-j-1}\choose{j}} C_{s-j}^2$. Then we want to consider $\mathcal{E}_s = \sum_{j=0}^{s-1} (-1)^j\mathcal{O}_{s,j}$. We want to ...

An $n$-Dyck path (or a Catalan path) is a lattice path $P$, unit East and North steps, in an $n\times n$ square grid which stays (weakly) above the main diagonal. Let $\square_n$ denote all such paths....

I am interested in a weighted version of the Catalan numbers. The generating function for this case, $$ f(x, y) = \sum_s \sum_n f_{s n} x^s y^n $$ (where the $y^n$ term is the weight), obeys the ...
