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 P(n,x) = -(2-x)*P(n-1,x) - (2-x)*P(n-2,x) for n >= 2, with P(0,x) = 1, P(1,x) = x.
%t Mathematica
P[0, x_] := 1;
P[1, x_] := x;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[-(2 - x)*P[n - 1, x] - (2 - x)*P[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] = 1; v[2] = x; for(n = 2, N, my(i = n + 1); v[i] = -(2 - x)*v[i - 1] - (2 - x)*v[i - 2]); v};
row(n, p) = {my(c = Vecrev(p)); c};
T(N) = {my(v = P(N)); concat(vector(#v, i, row(i - 1, v[i])))};

Proved properties

  • Real-rooted. Every row P_n, n >= 0, is zero or real-rooted with all roots in (-2, 2]
    Every polynomial of the sequence has only real roots, inside the stated interval.
    by the cited steps: e-e475554f8902db13
  • Interlacing of consecutive rows. Rows P_(m-1), P_m interlace (weak, unordered) for every m >= 1
    The roots of consecutive polynomials alternate on the real line.
