Observed on the stored rows ?

  • Degrees: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 (affine: slope 1, intercept 0)
  • Palindromic rows: no
  • γ-positive (gamma_positive): no
  • Nonnegative coefficients (nonn): no
  • Only rational roots (rr_by_factors: every nonzero row is a product of linear factors over ℚ): no

OEIS matches ?

A generated b-file is computed from the node's definition along the row alignment of its OEIS link and starts at the entry's offset. It is an identification on a finite prefix, not a proof that the node and the OEIS entry agree for every n.

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 -(n^2+2*n)*P(n,x) = -(2*n^2+3*n+1)*x*P(n-1,x) + (4*n^2+4*n-(4*n^2+4*n)*x+(n^2+n)*x^2)*P(n-2,x) for n >= 2, with P(0,x) = 1, P(1,x) = 2*x.
%t Mathematica
P[0, x_] := 1;
P[1, x_] := 2*x;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[Together[(-(2*n^2 + 3*n + 1)*x*P[n - 1, x] + (4*n^2 + 4*n - (4*n^2 + 4*n)*x + (n^2 + n)*x^2)*P[n - 2, x])/(-n^2 - 2*n)]];
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] = 2*x; for(n = 2, N, my(i = n + 1); v[i] = (-(2*n^2 + 3*n + 1)*x*v[i - 1] + (4*n^2 + 4*n - (4*n^2 + 4*n)*x + (n^2 + n)*x^2)*v[i - 2])/(-n^2 - 2*n)); v};
