Proof step

Laguerre’s theorem on differential operators

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

Concludes

derivative of theta_plus_one of a(n) = 1 if n is of the form m(m+3)/2, otherwise 0.

Premises

theta_plus_one of a(n) = 1 if n is of the form m(m+3)/2, otherwise 0.
sequence: Every row P_n, n >= 0, is zero or real-rooted with all roots in (-inf, 0]
