%F Formula

The row polynomials satisfy (2*n-4)*P(n,x) = (6*n-12+(n-2)*x)*P(n-1,x) + (8-2*x^2)*d/dx P(n-1,x) for n >= 3, with P(1,x) = 1, P(2,x) = 2.

%t Mathematica

P[1, x_] := 1;
P[2, x_] := 2;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[Together[((6*n - 12 + (n - 2)*x)*P[n - 1, x] + (8 - 2*x^2)*D[P[n - 1, x], x])/(2*n - 4)]];
Table[CoefficientList[P[n, x], x], {n, 1, 10}] // Flatten
