A polynomial of matrices is used to make a triangular sequence. The upper triangular anti-diagonal Steinbach matrices are summed over their characteristic polynomial triangular sequences to give a new sequence of matrices: the characteristic polynomials of these new summed matrices are, then, used to make up this triangular sequence.

COMMENTS
| Basically everything is done twice. The determinants get very large very fast for these matrices: Table[Det[w[[d]]], {d, 1, Length[w]}] {1, -1, -1, 37, 10879, -4322473, -11384127259974047, -121986767767877481129923, -323621163456130064854374309178100414058036559, 189651898964129252384795657180434913387386019400002936829101989683}

FORMULA
| p(n,x)=CharacteristicPolynomial(a(i,j)) p(n,x)->t(n,m) b(i,j)=Sum[t(i,j).a(j,k).{j,1,m}] p'(n,x)=CharacteristicPolynomial(b(i,j)) p'(n,x)->t'(n,m)
