%F Formula

The row polynomials satisfy P(n,x) = -(10+4*x+x^2)*P(n-2,x) - (6*x+3*x^2)*d/dx P(n-2,x) + (7+2*x)*P(n-1,x) + 3*x*d/dx P(n-1,x) for n >= 3, with P(1,x) = 0, P(2,x) = 1.

%t Mathematica

P[1, x_] := 0;
P[2, x_] := 1;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[-(10 + 4*x + x^2)*P[n - 2, x] - (6*x + 3*x^2)*D[P[n - 2, x], x] + (7 + 2*x)*P[n - 1, x] + 3*x*D[P[n - 1, x], x]];

Properties

Real-rooted? Every row P_n, n ≥ 1, is zero or real-rooted with all roots in (−∞, 0]
by Laguerre’s theorem on differential operators
Coefficients of one sign? Every nonzero row, n ≥ 1: the coefficients of P_n have one sign
derived from Laguerre’s theorem on differential operators
Hadamard kernel (Malo)? Rows P_n, n ≥ 1, are Hadamard kernels (preserve real-rootedness)
derived from Laguerre’s theorem on differential operators
Interlacing of consecutive rows? Rows P_(m-1), P_m interlace (weak, unordered) for every m ≥ 2
by Laguerre’s theorem on differential operators
