1 A proof of Catala s Covolutio formula Alo Regev Departmet of Mathematical Scieces Norther Illiois Uiveristy DeKalb, IL regev@mathiuedu arxiv: v1 [mathco] 2 Sep 2011 Abstract We give a ew proof of the k-fold covolutio of the Catala umbers This is doe by eumeratig a certai class of polygoal dissectios called k-i- dissectios Furthermore, we give a formula for the average umber of cycles i a triagulatio 1 Itroductio The Catala umbers are defied as follows Defiitio 1 For ay 0, For < 0, C 0 C 1 ( 2 +1 The Catala k-fold covolutio formula is due to Catala Theorem 2 [2] Let 1 k The i 1 ++i k C i1 1 C ik 1 k 2 k ( 2 k (1 Catala s origial proof [2, 3, 4, 5] uses Lagrage iversio Gessel ad Lacrombe [4] give two proofs which use hypergeometric idetities Tedford [6] exhibits several iterpretatios of the left-had side of (1 I this ote we use aother such iterpretatio, i terms of dissectios of polygos, to give a ew proof of Theorem 2 We arrive at this proof usig Theorem 5, which eumerates a class of polygoal dissectios called k-i- dissectios As aother coseuece of this eumeratio, i Corollary 7 we give a formula for the average umber of cycles i a triagulatio 2 The k-i- dissectios Defiitio 3 Let 3 ad let 0 k 3 1

5 Proof The left-had side of (7 is the umber of k-i- dissectios, with oe of the vertices of the k-go marked These ca also be chose as follows Choose ay vertex v of the -go For each vertex v, choose i 1,,i k such that i 1 ++i k This determies the legths of the sides of a k-go by startig at v ad proceedig, say, couterclockwise For example, i Figure 1, if v is the bottom vertex the the legths are 1,4,2,2,3 For each 1 r k, there is a resultig (i r +1-go sharig oe edge of the k-go Each of these (i r +1-go ca be triagulated i C ir 1 ways, formig a uiuely determied k-i- dissectio with oe of the of the k-go marked The proof of Theorem 2 ow follows from Lemma 10, sice i 1 ++i k C i1 1 C ik 1 k f k( k ( 2 k 1 k 2 k ( 2 k Refereces [1] M Bergerso ad A Miller ad A Pliml ad V Reier ad P Shearer ad D Stato ad N Switala, A ote o 1-crossig partitios, available at [2] E Catala, Sur les ombres de Seger, Red Circ Mat Palermo, 1 ( [3] D R Frech ad P J Larcombe, The Catala umber k-fold self-covolutio idetity: the origial formulatio, J Combi Math Combi Comput, 46 ( [4] I Gessel ad P J Lacrombe, A forgotte covolutio type idetity of Catala: two hypergeometric proofs, Util Math, 59 (2001, [5] P J Lacrombe, A forgotte covolutio type idetity of Catala, Util Math, 57(2000, [6] S J Tedford, Comibatorial iterpretatios of covolutios of the Catala umbers, Itegers 11 (2011 5
