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

%F Formula
The row polynomials satisfy P(n,x) = -(14-x)*P(n-1,x) - (14-x)*P(n-2,x) for n >= 3, with P(1,x) = 1, P(2,x) = -14 + x.
%t Mathematica
P[1, x_] := 1;
P[2, x_] := -14 + x;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[-(14 - x)*P[n - 1, x] - (14 - x)*P[n - 2, x]];

Proved properties

  • Real-rooted. Every row P_n, n >= 1, is zero or real-rooted with all roots in (10, 14]
    Every polynomial of the sequence has only real roots, inside the stated interval.
    by the cited steps: e-79b40901050ca651
  • Coefficients of one sign. Every nonzero row, n >= 1: the coefficients of P_n(-x) 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-79b40901050ca651
  • Interlacing of consecutive rows. Rows P_(m-1), P_m interlace (weak, unordered) for every m >= 2
    The roots of consecutive polynomials alternate on the real line.
    by the cited steps: e-79b40901050ca651
