Grand zigzag knight's paths

We study the enumeration of different classes of grand knight's paths in the plane. In particular, we focus on the subsets of zigzag knight's paths subject to constraints. These constraints include ending at ordinate 0, bounded by a horizontal line, confined within a tube, among other considerations. We present our results using generating functions or direct closed-form expressions. We derive asymptotic results, finding approximations for quantities such as the probability that a zigzag knight's path stays in some area of the plane, or for the average of the final height of such a path. Additionally, we exhibit some bijections between grand zigzag knight's paths and some pairs of compositions.
