Admissible paths through a grid
Problem 408
Let's call a lattice point (x, y) inadmissible if x, y and x + y are all positive perfect squares.
For example, (9, 16) is inadmissible, while (0, 4), (3, 1) and (9, 4) are not.
For example, (9, 16) is inadmissible, while (0, 4), (3, 1) and (9, 4) are not.
Consider a path from point (x1, y1) to point (x2, y2) using only unit steps north or east.
Let's call such a path admissible if none of its intermediate points are inadmissible.
Let's call such a path admissible if none of its intermediate points are inadmissible.
Let P(n) be the number of admissible paths from (0, 0) to (n, n).
It can be verified that P(5) = 252, P(16) = 596994440 and P(1000) mod 1 000 000 007 = 341920854.
