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 ((1/2)*n^2-(1/2)*n)*P(n,x) = (n^2+3*n-4)*P(n-1,x) - ((1/2)*n^2+(7/2)*n+6-((1/2)*n^2+(7/2)*n+6)*x)*P(n-2,x) for n >= 2, with P(0,x) = 0, P(1,x) = 15.
%t Mathematica
P[0, x_] := 0;
P[1, x_] := 15;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[Together[((n^2 + 3*n - 4)*P[n - 1, x] - ((1/2)*n^2 + (7/2)*n + 6 - ((1/2)*n^2 + (7/2)*n + 6)*x)*P[n - 2, x])/((1/2)*n^2 - (1/2)*n)]];
Table[CoefficientList[P[n, x], x], {n, 0, 9}] // Flatten
%o PARI/GP
P(N) = {my(v = vector(N + 1)); v[1] = 0; v[2] = 15; for(n = 2, N, my(i = n + 1); v[i] = ((n^2 + 3*n - 4)*v[i - 1] - ((1/2)*n^2 + (7/2)*n + 6 - ((1/2)*n^2 + (7/2)*n + 6)*x)*v[i - 2])/((1/2)*n^2 - (1/2)*n)); v};

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-86ba7e1c6bc69fa7
  • 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-86ba7e1c6bc69fa7
  • 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-86ba7e1c6bc69fa7
  • Interlacing of consecutive rows. Rows P_(m-1), P_m interlace (weak, previous interlaces next) for every m >= 1
    The roots of consecutive polynomials alternate on the real line.
    by the cited steps: e-86ba7e1c6bc69fa7
