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 atlas's own rows: n = 0, …, ascending powers of x

%F Formula

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

%t Mathematica

P[0, x_] := 2 + x;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[Together[((2 + (3*n^2 + 2*n + 1)*x + (n^4 + 2*n^3 + n^2)*x^2)*P[n - 1, x])/(2 + n^2*x)]];
Table[CoefficientList[P[n, x], x], {n, 0, 9}] // Flatten

%o PARI/GP

P(N) = {my(v = vector(N + 1)); v[1] = 2 + x; for(n = 1, N, my(i = n + 1); v[i] = ((2 + (3*n^2 + 2*n + 1)*x + (n^4 + 2*n^3 + n^2)*x^2)*v[i - 1])/(2 + n^2*x)); v};
row(n, p) = {my(c = Vecrev(p)); c};
T(N) = {my(v = P(N)); concat(vector(#v, i, row(i - 1, v[i])))};
