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 = 0, …, ascending powers of x

%F Formula
The row polynomials satisfy P(n,x) = -(5+4*x+x^2)*P(n-2,x) - (2+3*x+x^2)*d/dx P(n-2,x) + (5+2*x)*P(n-1,x) + (1+x)*d/dx P(n-1,x) for n >= 2, with P(0,x) = 0, P(1,x) = 1.
%t Mathematica
P[0, x_] := 0;
P[1, x_] := 1;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[-(5 + 4*x + x^2)*P[n - 2, x] - (2 + 3*x + x^2)*D[P[n - 2, x], x] + (5 + 2*x)*P[n - 1, x] + (1 + x)*D[P[n - 1, x], x]];
Table[CoefficientList[P[n, x], x], {n, 0, 9}] // Flatten
%o PARI/GP
P(N) = {my(v = vector(N + 1)); v[1] = 0; v[2] = 1; for(n = 2, N, my(i = n + 1); v[i] = -(5 + 4*x + x^2)*v[i - 2] - (2 + 3*x + x^2)*deriv(v[i - 2], x) + (5 + 2*x)*v[i - 1] + (1 + x)*deriv(v[i - 1], x)); v};

Proved properties

  • Real-rooted. Every row P_n, n >= 0, 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-d9c92bd896d7b431
  • Coefficients of one sign. Every nonzero row, n >= 0: 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-d9c92bd896d7b431
  • Hadamard kernel (Malo). Rows P_n, n >= 0, 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-d9c92bd896d7b431
