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

The row polynomials satisfy (n-1)*P(n,x) = -(n+(4*n^2-4*n)*x-(9*n^3-18*n^2+9*n)*x^2)*P(n-2,x) + ((4*n^2-4*n)*x^2+(4*n^3-8*n^2+4*n)*x^3)*d/dx P(n-2,x) + (2*n-1+(4*n^2-4*n)*x)*P(n-1,x) - (4*n^2-4*n)*x^2*d/dx P(n-1,x) for n >= 2, with P(0,x) = 1, P(1,x) = 1 + 4*x.

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-85e78a9430ebb6ba
  • 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-85e78a9430ebb6ba
  • 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-85e78a9430ebb6ba
  • 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.
    by the cited steps: e-85e78a9430ebb6ba
