%N Area between two valleys at height 0 under the infinite Dyck path related to partitions in which the k-th ascending line segment has A141285(k) steps and the k-th descending line segment has A194446(k) steps, k >= 1, multiplied by 2.
%e For k = 6, the diagram 1 represents the partitions of 6. The diagram 2 is a minimalist version of the structure which does not contain the axes [X, Y], see below:
%e .

%e Then we use the elements from the above diagram to draw an infinite Dyck path in which the j-th odd-indexed segment has A141285(j) up-steps and the j-th even-indexed segment has A194446(j) down-steps.
%e For the illustration of initial terms we use two opposite Dyck paths, as shown below:
%e 11 ...........................................................
%e . /\
%e . /

%e 7 .................................. /

%e 5 .................... / \ /\/

%e The diagram is infinite. Note that the n-th largest peak between two valleys at height 0 is also the partition number A000041(n).
%e Calculations:
%e a(1) = 1.
%e a(2) = 2^2 = 4.
%e a(3) = 3^2 = 9.
%e a(4) = 2^2-1^2+5^2 = 4-1+25 = 28.
%e a(5) = 3^2-2^2+7^2 = 9-4+49 = 54.
%e a(6) = 2^2-1^2+5^2-3^2+6^2-5^2+11^2 = 4-1+25-9+36-25+121 = 151.
