contents Let $f:\mathbb{Z}\longrightarrow \{ \times \cdot\}$ be a function such that $f(a) = \cdot$ for all except finitely for many $a \in \mathbb{Z}$. We define a set $\flat f$ of non-intersecting arc (or cap) diagrams satisfying certain conditions determined by $f$. Then we give a recursive method for enumeration of $\flat f$ which recalls the Fundamental Recurrence for Catalan numbers. The motivation comes from the problem of enumeration of the composition factors of a Kac module with maximum degree of atypicality for the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{gl}(r|r)$. In particular we prove a conjecture that the maximum number of composition factors is a Catalan number.

Let $f:\mathbb{Z}\longrightarrow \{ \times \cdot\}$ be a function such that $f(a) = \cdot$ for all except finitely for many $a \in \mathbb{Z}$. We define a set $\flat f$ of non-intersecting arc (or cap) diagrams satisfying certain conditions determined by $f$. Then we give a recursive method for enumeration of $\flat f$ which recalls the Fundamental Recurrence for Catalan numbers. The motivation comes from the problem of enumeration of the composition factors of a Kac module with maximum degree of atypicality for the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{gl}(r|r)$. In particular we prove a conjecture that the maximum number of composition factors is a Catalan number.
