Proof step

Laguerre’s theorem on multiplier sequences

Image under a real-rootedness preserver euler polynomial, shift 0

Concludes

Triangle read by rows: T(n, k) = (k+1)*S2(n+1, k+1), for n >= k >= 0, and S2 = A048993 (Stirling2).

Premises

Triangle of Stirling numbers of the second kind, S2(n,k), n >= 1, 1 <= k <= n.
sequence: Every row P_n, n >= 1, is zero or real-rooted with all roots in (-inf, 0]
