Abstract
Let be a grid path made of north and east steps. The lattice , based on all grid paths weakly above and sharing the same endpoints as , was introduced by Pr\'eville-Ratelle and Viennot (2014) and corresponds to the usual Tamari lattice in the case . Our main contribution is that the enumeration of intervals in , over all of length , is given by . This formula was first obtained by Tutte(1963) for the enumeration of non-separable planar maps. Moreover, we give an explicit bijection from these intervals in to non-separable planar maps.
