Observed on the stored rows ?

  • Degrees: 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3 (irregular)
  • Palindromic rows: no
  • γ-positive (gamma_positive): no
  • Nonnegative coefficients (nonn): yes
  • Only rational roots (rr_by_factors: every nonzero row is a product of linear factors over ℚ): no

OEIS matches ?

A generated b-file is computed from the node's definition along the row alignment of its OEIS link and starts at the entry's offset. It is an identification on a finite prefix, not a proof that the node and the OEIS entry agree for every n.

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.

%e Example
Triangle begins:
  0:   1;

%F Formula
The row polynomials satisfy P(n,x) = 2*P(n-1,x) - (1-x)*P(n-4,x) for n >= 4, with P(0,x) = 1, P(1,x) = 2, P(2,x) = 4, P(3,x) = 8.
%t Mathematica
