چکیده

Kaparthi, S. and H.R. Rao, Higher dimensional restricted lattice paths with diagonal steps, Discrete Applied Mathematics 31(1991) 279-289. In this paper, restricted minimal lattice paths with horizontal, vertical, and diagonal steps, in two and higher dimensions are discussed. The Delannoy numbers, the numbers of unrestricted minimal lattice paths with diagonal steps, and some of their properties are introduced. The recurrence on the Delannoy numbers is extended to higher dimensions. The relation in two dimensions between the restricted minimal lattice paths and the Delannoy numbers is shown through the use of Andre’s reflection principle. This relation is generalized from two dimensions to higher dimensions and is found to be in the form of a determinant. The relation between unrestricted and restricted weighted minimal lattice paths in two dimensions is shown by the extension of Andre’s reflection principle.

The 2 n − 1 factor for multi - dimensional lattice paths with diagonal steps

In Zd, let D(n) denote the set of lattice paths from the origin to (n, n, . . . , n) that use nonzero steps of the form (x1, x2, . . . , xd) where xi ∈ {0, 1} for 1 ≤ i ≤ d. Let S(n) denote the set of lattice paths from the origin to (n, n, . . . , n) that use nonzero steps of the form (x1, x2, . . . , xd) where xi ≥ 0 for 1 ≤ i ≤ d. For d = 3, we prove bijectively that the cardinalities satisf...

Bijective Recurrences concerning Schro"der Paths

Consider lattice paths in Z2 with three step types: the up diagonal (1, 1), the down diagonal (1,−1), and the double horizontal (2, 0). For n ≥ 1, let Sn denote the set of such paths running from (0, 0) to (2n, 0) and remaining strictly above the x-axis except initially and terminally. It is well known that the cardinalities, rn = |Sn|, are the large Schröder numbers. We use lattice paths to in...

Bijective Recurrences concerning Schrr Oder Paths

Consider lattice paths in Z 2 with three step types: the up diagonal (1; 1), the down diagonal (1; ?1), and the double horizontal (2; 0). For n 1, let S n denote the set of such paths running from (0; 0) to (2n; 0) and remaining strictly above the x-axis except initially and terminally. It is well known that the cardinalities, r n = jS n j, are the large Schrr oder numbers. We use lattice paths...

Lattice Paths Between Diagonal Boundaries

A bivariate symmetric backwards recursion is of the form d[m,n] = w0(d[m− 1, n]+d[m,n−1])+ω1(d[m−r1, n−s1]+d[m−s1, n−r1])+· · ·+ωk(d[m−rk, n−sk] +d[m− sk, n− rk]) where ω0, . . . ωk are weights, r1, . . . rk and s1, . . . sk are positive integers. We prove three theorems about solving symmetric backwards recursions restricted to the diagonal band x+ u < y < x− l. With a solution we mean a formu...
