%F Formula
The row polynomials satisfy (n-2)*P(n,x) = -(n-1+(n-1)*x)*P(n-1,x) - (n-1)*x*d/dx P(n-1,x) for n >= 3, with P(1,x) = 0, P(2,x) = -1.
%t Mathematica
P[1, x_] := 0;
P[2, x_] := -1;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[Together[(-(n - 1 + (n - 1)*x)*P[n - 1, x] - (n - 1)*x*D[P[n - 1, x], x])/(n - 2)]];
Table[CoefficientList[P[n, x], x], {n, 1, 10}] // Flatten
%o PARI/GP
P(N) = {my(v = vector(N)); v[1] = 0; v[2] = -1; for(n = 3, N, my(i = n); v[i] = (-(n - 1 + (n - 1)*x)*v[i - 1] - (n - 1)*x*deriv(v[i - 1], x))/(n - 2)); v};

Properties

  • Real-rooted? Every row P_n, n ≥ 1, is zero or real-rooted with all roots in (−∞, 0]
  • Coefficients of one sign? Every nonzero row, n ≥ 1: the coefficients of P_n have one sign
    derived from Ray basis map theorem
  • Hadamard kernel (Malo)? Rows P_n, n ≥ 1, are Hadamard kernels (preserve real-rootedness)
    derived from Ray basis map theorem
