Laguerre’s theorem on multiplier sequences

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

Concludes

theta_plus_one_squared of T(n, k) = Sum_{j=0..n-k} (-1)^j*binomial(n - k + 1, j)*(n - k + 1 - j)^n. Triangle read by rows, T(n, k) for 1 <= k <= n.

Premises

T(n, k) = Sum_{j=0..n-k} (-1)^j*binomial(n - k + 1, j)*(n - k + 1 - j)^n. Triangle read by rows, T(n, k) for 1 <= k <= n.
sequence: Every row P_n, n >= 0, is zero or real-rooted with all roots in (-inf, 0]
