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 = 1, …, ascending powers of x

%F Formula
The row polynomials satisfy (n-1+(n^2-2*n+1)*x)*P(n,x) = (n-1+(n^2+2*n-7)*x+(2*n^2-2*n-4)*x^2)*P(n-1,x) - (x+(n+5)*x^2+(4*n+4)*x^3)*d/dx P(n-1,x) for n >= 2, with P(1,x) = 1.
%t Mathematica
P[1, x_] := 1;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[Together[((n - 1 + (n^2 + 2*n - 7)*x + (2*n^2 - 2*n - 4)*x^2)*P[n - 1, x] - (x + (n + 5)*x^2 + (4*n + 4)*x^3)*D[P[n - 1, x], x])/(n - 1 + (n^2 - 2*n + 1)*x)]];

%o PARI/GP
P(N) = {my(v = vector(N)); v[1] = 1; for(n = 2, N, my(i = n); v[i] = ((n - 1 + (n^2 + 2*n - 7)*x + (2*n^2 - 2*n - 4)*x^2)*v[i - 1] - (x + (n + 5)*x^2 + (4*n + 4)*x^3)*deriv(v[i - 1], x))/(n - 1 + (n^2 - 2*n + 1)*x)); v};

Proved properties

  • Real-rooted. Every row P_n, n >= 1, 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-2f2b497ea65d3c56
  • 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-2f2b497ea65d3c56
  • 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-2f2b497ea65d3c56
