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 -1)
  • Palindromic rows: no
  • γ-positive (gamma_positive): no
  • Nonnegative coefficients (nonn): yes
  • 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.

%F Formula
The row polynomials satisfy (1+x)*P(n,x) = (x+2*x^2+x^3)*P(n-2,x) + (1+3*x+2*x^2)*P(n-1,x) for n >= 3, with P(1,x) = 1, P(2,x) = x.
%t Mathematica
P[1, x_] := 1;
P[2, x_] := x;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[Together[((x + 2*x^2 + x^3)*P[n - 2, x] + (1 + 3*x + 2*x^2)*P[n - 1, x])/(1 + x)]];
Table[CoefficientList[P[n, x], x], {n, 1, 10}] // Flatten
%o PARI/GP
P(N) = {my(v = vector(N)); v[1] = 1; v[2] = x; for(n = 3, N, my(i = n); v[i] = ((x + 2*x^2 + x^3)*v[i - 2] + (1 + 3*x + 2*x^2)*v[i - 1])/(1 + x)); v};

Proved properties

  • Real-rooted. Every row P_n, n >= 1, is zero or real-rooted with all roots in [-1, 0]
    Every polynomial of the sequence has only real roots, inside the stated interval.
    by the cited steps: e-217dc49de8a7d573
  • Coefficients of one sign. Every nonzero row, n >= 1: 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-217dc49de8a7d573
  • Hadamard kernel (Malo). Rows P_n, n >= 1, 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-217dc49de8a7d573
