Symmetric Dyck paths and q-Narayana numbers
Johann Cigler

TL;DR
This paper demonstrates that q-Narayana numbers at q=-1 precisely count symmetric Dyck paths based on their valleys, revealing a new combinatorial interpretation.
Contribution
It introduces a novel connection between q-Narayana numbers at q=-1 and symmetric Dyck paths, enriching the combinatorial understanding of these numbers.
Findings
q-Narayana numbers at q=-1 count symmetric Dyck paths by valleys
Establishes a new combinatorial interpretation of q-Narayana numbers
Enhances understanding of symmetric Dyck path enumeration
Abstract
We show that the q-Narayana numbers for q=-1 count symmetric Dyck paths according to the number of their valleys.
