%F Formula
The row polynomials satisfy (1+x)*P(n,x) = -(n-5+(3*n-13)*x+(3*n-10)*x^2+(n-2)*x^3)*P(n-1,x) + (x+3*x^2+3*x^3+x^4)*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 - 5 + (3*n - 13)*x + (3*n - 10)*x^2 + (n - 2)*x^3)*P[n - 1, x] + (x + 3*x^2 + 3*x^3 + x^4)*D[P[n - 1, x], 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; for(n = 2, N, my(i = n); v[i] = (-(n - 5 + (3*n - 13)*x + (3*n - 10)*x^2 + (n - 2)*x^3)*v[i - 1] + (x + 3*x^2 + 3*x^3 + x^4)*deriv(v[i - 1], x))/(1 + x)); v};
