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 -(16*n+8*n*x-2*n^3*x^2)*P(n,x) = -(32*n+32+(4*n^2+32*n+28)*x-(4*n^3+4*n^2-8*n-8)*x^2-(n^3+2*n^2+n)*x^3)*P(n-1,x) - (16+48*x-(4*n^2+4*n-36)*x^2-(8*n^2+8*n-4)*x^3-(n^2+n)*x^4)*d/dx P(n-1,x) for n >= 1, with P(0,x) = 1.

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-4a2e695cedf93066
  • 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-4a2e695cedf93066
  • 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-4a2e695cedf93066
  • 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-4a2e695cedf93066
