摘要
Let a(1)a(2) ... a(n) be a sequence of natural numbers > 1, and set a(0) = a(n+1) = 1. The sequence is called admissible if a(i) divides a(i-1) + a(i+1) for all i. It is known that the admissible sequences are counted by the Catalan numbers. We present a proof of this fact which, in turn, leads to some interesting combinatorial and number-theoretic questions.
