An exhaustive generation algorithm for Catalan objects and others
Antonio Bernini, Irene Fanti, Elisabetta Grazzini
Abstract
In this paper we present a CAT generation algorithm for Dyck paths with a fixed length n. It is the formalization of a method for the exhaustive generation of this kind of paths which can be described by means of two equivalent strategies. The former is described by a rooted tree, the latter lists the paths by means of three operations which, as we are going to see, are equivalent to visit the tree. These constructions are strictly connected with ECO method and can be encoded by a rule, very similar to the succession rule in ECO, with a finite number of labels for each n. Moreover with a slight variation this method can be generalized to other combinatorial classes like Grand Dyck or Motzkin paths.
