OEIS submission text ?

Fields to paste into an OEIS submission: the example %e, the formula %F and programs %t (Mathematica) and %o (PARI/GP) that list the same rows. For an OEIS link the row numbers, the offset and the orientation are those of the entry, as matched; the matched terms were compared with the published ones, which identifies the node with the entry on a finite prefix, not for every n. The PARI/GP program is not machine-checked here.

The row polynomials satisfy (n-2)*P(n,x) = (n+1+(4*n-12)*x)*P(n-1,x) + (2*x-8*x^2)*d/dx P(n-1,x) for n >= 3, with P(0,x) = 0, P(1,x) = 0, P(2,x) = 4.

P[0, x_] := 0;
P[1, x_] := 0;
P[2, x_] := 4;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[Together[((n + 1 + (4*n - 12)*x)*P[n - 1, x] + (2*x - 8*x^2)*D[P[n - 1, x], x])/(n - 2)]];

P(N) = {my(v = vector(N + 1)); v[1] = 0; v[2] = 0; v[3] = 4; for(n = 3, N, my(i = n + 1); v[i] = ((n + 1 + (4*n - 12)*x)*v[i - 1] + (2*x - 8*x^2)*deriv(v[i - 1], x))/(n - 2)); v};

Proved properties

• Real-rooted. Every row P_n, n >= 0, is zero or real-rooted with all roots in (-inf, 0]
  Every polynomial of the sequence has only real roots, inside the stated interval.
  by the cited steps: e-85c5f3f1ee78f4c4
• Coefficients of one sign. Every nonzero row, n >= 0: the coefficients of P_n have one sign
  All coefficients of each polynomial have the same sign (after x -> -x when alternating).
  derived from the cited steps by a stated theorem: e-85c5f3f1ee78f4c4
• Hadamard kernel (Malo). Rows P_n, n >= 0, are Hadamard kernels (preserve real-rootedness)
  Multiplying the coefficients of any real-rooted polynomial termwise by those of a row (Hadamard product) gives a real-rooted polynomial again.
  derived from the cited steps by a stated theorem: e-85c5f3f1ee78f4c4
