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 row polynomials satisfy P(n,x) = 4*P(n-1,x) - 6*P(n-2,x) + 4*P(n-3,x) - (1-16*x)*P(n-4,x) for n >= 4, with P(0,x) = 1, P(1,x) = 2, P(2,x) = 3, P(3,x) = 4.

P[0, x_] := 1;
P[1, x_] := 2;
P[2, x_] := 3;
P[3, x_] := 4;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[4*P[n - 1, x] - 6*P[n - 2, x] + 4*P[n - 3, x] - (1 - 16*x)*P[n - 4, x]];

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-257278eb9a50cd75
• 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-257278eb9a50cd75
• 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-257278eb9a50cd75
