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

The row polynomials satisfy P(n,x) = (2*x+2*x^2+x^3)*P(n-3,x) + (x^2+x^3)*d/dx P(n-3,x) - (2+5*x+3*x^2)*P(n-2,x) - (x+2*x^2)*d/dx P(n-2,x) + (3+3*x)*P(n-1,x) + x*d/dx P(n-1,x) for n >= 4, with P(1,x) = 1, P(2,x) = 3 + 2*x, P(3,x) = 7 + 12*x + 3*x^2.

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-8b35b367ffdd04e7
  • 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-8b35b367ffdd04e7
  • 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-8b35b367ffdd04e7
