Letbe the number of integer sequences
satisfying
≤
≤ ... ≤
and
≤ 1,
≤ 2, ...,
≤n.
a. Show all possible such sequences for n = 1, n=2, and n =3.
b.(i) Find an explicit formula for. (ii) Justify your answer.
c.(i) Find a reccurence for. (ii) Justify your answer.
I can two part a. B is just clearling the Catalan number, but justifying it is a little hard. I guess the best way would be to draw a 1-1 correspondence with the number of +1's and -1's in a permutation, anyone able to help me with this?
