%F Formula
The row polynomials satisfy P(n,x) = (2*n-1+(n-1)*x)*P(n-1,x) - (4+4*x+x^2)*d/dx P(n-1,x) for n >= 2, with P(1,x) = 1.
%t Mathematica
P[1, x_] := 1;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[(2*n - 1 + (n - 1)*x)*P[n - 1, x] - (4 + 4*x + x^2)*D[P[n - 1, x], x]];
Table[CoefficientList[P[n, x], x], {n, 1, 10}] // Flatten

P(N) = {my(v = vector(N)); v[1] = 1; for(n = 2, N, my(i = n); v[i] = (2*n - 1 + (n - 1)*x)*v[i - 1] - (4 + 4*x + x^2)*deriv(v[i - 1], x)); v};
