Factoring Catalan numbers

The paper describes a prime factorization of the Catalan numbers. Odd prime factors are distributed in layers in accordance with Legendre's formula. The content of each layer is a network of the intervals, Chebyshev's Segments. The primes of Segment are not calculated and are selected on the basis of its bounds. Layers contain non-repeated primes. Repeated factors are formed when primes are duplicated among different layers. The paper slightly modifies Kummer's theorem for the selection of individual prime factors, also starting from the boundaries of Segments. In conclusion, the reader is offered a software service for factorization of the Catalan number with index up to $10^8$

Legendre's formula and $p$-adic analysis

In number theory, we know Legendre's formula $ v_p(n!) = \sum_{k \ge 1} \lfloor \frac{n}{p^k} \rfloor $, which calculates the $p$-adic valuation of the factorial, i.e. the exponent of the greatest power of a prime $p$ that divides $n!$. There is also the second (or alternative) equality $ v_p (n!) = \frac{n-s_p(n)}{p-1} $ where $s_p(n)$ is the $p$-adic weight of $n$ or the sum of digits of $n$ in base $p$. Both kinds of Legendre's formula allow us to determine valuations of the natural number, the odd factorial, binomial coefficients, Catalan numbers, and other combinatorial objects. The article examines the relationship between the $p$-adic valuation and $p$-adic weight and considers their increments. The arithmetic of the $p$-adic increments is proposed.

Dyck Paths in Four-Dimensional Space

In analyzing balanced parentheses, we consider a group of related variables in Dyck paths. In the four-dimensional space, the Dyck triangle is constructed, i.e. an integer lattice with Dyck paths.
