cp's OEIS Frontend

This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

A253283 Triangle read by rows: coefficients of the partial fraction decomposition of [d^n/dx^n] (x/(1-x))^n/n!.

The rows give (up to sign) the coefficients in the expansion of the integer-valued polynomial (x+1)^2*(x+2)^2*(x+3)^2*...*(x+n)^2*(x+n+1) / (n!*(n+1)!) in the basis made of the binomial(x+i,i). - F. Chapoton, Oct 31 2022
This is related to the cluster fans of type B (see Fomin and Zelevinsky reference) - F. Chapoton, Nov 17 2022.

Formula

The exponential generating functions for the rows of the square array L(n,k) = ((n+k)!/n!)*C(n+k-1,n-1) (associated to the unsigned Lah numbers) are given by R_n(x) = Sum_{k=0..n} T(n,k)/(x-1)^(n+k).
T(n,k) = C(n,k)*C(n+k-1,k-1).
Sum_{k=0..n} T(n,k) = (-1)^n*hypergeom([-n,n],[1],2) = (-1)^n*A182626(n).
Row generating function: Sum_{k>=1} T(n,k)*z^k = z*n* 2F1(1-n,n+1 ; 2; -z). - R. J. Mathar, Dec 18 2016
From Peter Bala, Feb 22 2017: (Start)
G.f.: (1/2)*( 1 + (1 - t)/sqrt(1 - 2*(2*x + 1)*t + t^2) ) = 1 + x*t + (2*x + 3*x^2)*t^2 + (3*x + 12*x^2 + 10*x^3)*t^3 + ....
n-th row polynomial R(n,x) = (1/2)*(LegendreP(n, 2*x + 1) - LegendreP(n-1, 2*x + 1)) for n >= 1.
The row polynomials are the black diamond product of the polynomials x^n and x^(n+1) (see Dukes and White 2016 for the definition of this product).
exp(Sum_{n >= 1} R(n,x)*t^n/n) = 1 + x*t + x*(1 + 2*x)*t^2 + x*(1 + 5*x + 5*x^2)*t^3 + ... is a g.f. for A033282, but with a different offset.
The polynomials P(n,x) := (-1)^n/n!*x^(2*n)*(d/dx)^n(1 + 1/x)^n begin 1, 3 + 2*x , 10 + 12*x + 3*x^2, ... and are the row polynomials for the row reverse of this triangle. (End)
Let Q(n, x) = Sum_{j=0..n} (-1)^(n - j)*A269944(n, j)*x^(2*j - 1) and P(x, y) = (LegendreP(x, 2*y + 1) - LegendreP(x-1, 2*y + 1)) / 2 (see Peter Bala above). Then n!*(n - 1)!*[y^n] P(x, y) = Q(n, x) for n >= 1. - Peter Luschny, Oct 31 2022
From Peter Bala, Apr 18 2024: (Start)
G.f.: Sum_{n >= 0} binomial(2*n-1, n)*(x*t)^n/(1 - t)^(2*n) = 1 + x*t + (2*x + 3*x^2)*t^2 + (3*x + 12*x^2 + 10*x^3)*t^3 + ....
n-th row polynomial R(n, x) = [t^n] ( (1 - t)/(1 - (1 + x)*t) )^n.
It follows that for integer x, the sequence {R(n, x) : n >= 0} satisfies the Gauss congruences: R(n*p^r, x) == R(n*p^(r-1), x) (mod p^r) for all primes p and positive integers n and r.
R(n, -2) = (-1)^n * A002003(n) for n >= 1.
R(n, 3) = A299507(n). (End)
