%F Formula
The row polynomials satisfy P(n,x) = -x^2*P(n-4,x) + (16+12*x)*P(n-3,x) - (4-2*x)*P(n-2,x) + 4*P(n-1,x) for n >= 5, with P(1,x) = 1, P(2,x) = 1, P(3,x) = 2 + x, P(4,x) = 16 + 15*x.
%t Mathematica
P[1, x_] := 1;
P[2, x_] := 1;
P[3, x_] := 2 + x;
P[4, x_] := 16 + 15*x;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[-x^2*P[n - 4, x] + (16 + 12*x)*P[n - 3, x] - (4 - 2*x)*P[n - 2, x] + 4*P[n - 1, x]];
