The Dyck path statistic number of occurrences of T has been studied by many authors for particular strings only. In this paper arbitrary strings are considered. The associated generating function is evaluated when T is a Dyck prefix or a Dyck suffix . Furthermore the case when T is neither a Dyck prefix nor a Dyck suffix is considered giving some partial results. Finally the statistic number of occurrences of T at height at least j is considered evaluating the corresponding generating function when T is either a Dyck prefix or a Dyck suffix. 1 Introduction Throughout this paper a path is considered to be a lattice path on the integer plane consisting of steps u 1 1 called rises and d 1 1 called falls . Since the sequence of steps of a path is encoded by a word in u d we will make no distinction between these two notions. The length a of a path a is the number of its steps. The height of a point of a path is its y-coordinate. A Dyck path is a path that starts and ends at the same height and lies weakly above this height. It is convenient to consider that the starting point of a Dyck path is the origin of a pair of axes see Fig. 1 . The set of Dyck paths of semilength n is denoted by Dn and we set D un 0 Dn where D0 e and E is the empty path. It is well known that Dn Cn where Cn n 1 2n is the n-th Catalan number see sequence A000108 in 23 . Every non-empty Dyck path a can be uniquely decomposed in the form a u dy where d 7 6 D. This is the so called first return decomposition. If Y E then a is a prime Dyck path. THE ELECTRONIC .
