Triangulated polygons and Y-frieze patterns

Source abstract

In the spirit of Conway and Coxeter, we classify all $\mathbf{Y}$-frieze patterns of type $A_n$. In particular, we settle a conjecture made by de Saint Germain that all such $\mathbf{Y}$-frieze patterns arise from Conway-Coxeter frieze patterns. Moreover, our approach naturally leads to the enumeration of these $\mathbf{Y}$-frieze patterns in terms of Fuss-Catalan numbers.
