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) = -(12-3*x)*P(n-1,x) - (12-3*x)*P(n-2,x) for n >= 2, with P(0,x) = 1, P(1,x) = -12 + 3*x.
%t Mathematica
P[0, x_] := 1;
P[1, x_] := -12 + 3*x;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[-(12 - 3*x)*P[n - 1, x] - (12 - 3*x)*P[n - 2, x]];

Proved properties

  • Real-rooted. Every row P_n, n >= 0, is zero or real-rooted with all roots in (8/3, 4]
    Every polynomial of the sequence has only real roots, inside the stated interval.
    by the cited steps: e-4e1348328210bdec
  • Coefficients of one sign. Every nonzero row, n >= 0: 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-4e1348328210bdec
  • Interlacing of consecutive rows. Rows P_(m-1), P_m interlace (weak, unordered) for every m >= 1
    The roots of consecutive polynomials alternate on the real line.
    by the cited steps: e-4e1348328210bdec
