%F Formula

The row polynomials satisfy (n-2)*P(n,x) = (n-1+(18*n-54)*x)*P(n-1,x) - (x+36*x^2)*d/dx P(n-1,x) for n >= 3, with P(0,x) = 0, P(1,x) = 0, P(2,x) = 9.

%t Mathematica

P[0, x_] := 0;
P[1, x_] := 0;
P[2, x_] := 9;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[Together[((n - 1 + (18*n - 54)*x)*P[n - 1, x] - (x + 36*x^2)*D[P[n - 1, x], x])/(n - 2)]];

Properties

Real-rooted? Every row P_n, n ≥ 0, is zero or real-rooted with all roots in (−∞, 0]
by Laguerre’s theorem on differential operators
Coefficients of one sign? Every nonzero row, n ≥ 0: the coefficients of P_n have one sign
derived from Laguerre’s theorem on differential operators
Hadamard kernel (Malo)? Rows P_n, n ≥ 0, are Hadamard kernels (preserve real-rootedness)
derived from Laguerre’s theorem on differential operators
