Dyck Numbers, III. Enumeration and bijection with symmetric Dyck paths

Abstract: Dyck paths (also balanced brackets and Dyck words) are among the most heavily studied Catalan families. This paper is a continuation of [2, 3]. In the paper we enumerate the terms of the OEIS A036991, Dyck numbers, and construct a concomitant bijection with symmetric Dyck paths. In the case of binary coding of Dyck paths we work with compact natural numbers after removing leading zeros. Analysis of binary suffixes, allowed us to obtain a bijection between arbitrary A036991 terms and symmetric A036991 terms which encode symmetric Dyck paths. The bijection generates a forest of unary non-intersecting infinite trees. The root of each bijection tree is an asymmetric term; the other nodes are symmetrical. There are an infinite number of such trees. The reader is offered a software package for working with bijection trees.
