%N Triangle read by rows: row n gives coefficients C(n,j) for a Sheffer sequence (binomial-type) with lowering operator (D-1)/2 + T{ (1/2) * exp[(D-1)/2] } where T(x) is Cayley's Tree function.

%C The lowering (or delta) operator for these polynomials is L = (D-1)/2 + T{ (1/2) * exp[(D-1)/2] } and the raising operator is R = 2t * { 1 - T[ (1/2) * exp[(D-1)/2] ] }, where T(x) is the tree function of A000169. In addition, L = E(D,1) = A(D) where E(x,t) is the e.g.f. of A134991 and A(x) is the e.g.f. of A000311, so L = sum(j=1,...) A000311(j) * D^j / j! also. The polynomials and operators can be generalized through A134991.

%C Also the Bell transform of A153881. For the definition of the Bell transform see A264428. - _Peter Luschny_, Jan 27 2016

%F Row polynomials are P(n,t) = Sum_{j=1..n} C(n,j) * t^j = [ Bell(.,-t) + 2t ]^n, umbrally, where Bell(j,t) are the Touchard/Bell/exponential polynomials described in A008277, with P(0,t) = 1.

%F E.g.f.: exp{ t * [ -exp(x) + 2x + 1] } and [ P(.,t) + P(.,s) ]^n = P(n,s+t).

%F The lowering operator gives L[P(n,t)] = n * P(n-1,t) = (D-1)/2 * P(n,t) + Sum_{j>=1} j^(j-1) * 2^(-j) / j! * exp(-j/2) * P(n,t + j/2).

%F The raising operator gives R[P(n,t)] = P(n+1,t) = 2t * { P(n,t) - Sum_{j>=1} j^(j-1) * 2^(-j) / j! * exp(-j/2) * P(n,t + j/2) } .

%F Therefore P(n+1,t) = 2t * { [ (1+D)/2 * P(n,t) ] - n * P(n-1,t) }.

%F P(n,1) = (-1)^n * A074051(n) and P(n,-1) = A126617(n).

%F From _Tom Copeland_, Jan 20 2018: (Start)

%F Define Q(n,z;w) = [Bell(.,w)+z]^n. Then Q(n,z;w) are a sequence of Appell polynomials with e.g.f. exp[(exp(t)-1+z)*w], lowering operator D = d/dz, and raising operator R = z + w*exp(D), and exp[(exp(D)-1)w] z^n = exp[Bell(.,w)D] z^n = Q(n,z;w) = e^(-w) (w d/dw + z)^n e^w = e^(-w) exp(a.w) = exp[(a. - 1)w] with (a.)^k = a_k = (k + z)^n and (a. - 1)^m = sum{k = 0,..,m} (-1)^k a^(m-k). Then P(n,t) = Q(n,2t;-t).

%F For example, exp[(a. - 1)w] = (a. - 1)^0 + (a. - 1)^1 w + (a. - 1)^2 w^2/2! + ... = a_0 + (a_1 - a_0) w + (a_2 - 2a_1 + a_0) w^2/2! + ... = z^n + [(1+z)^n - z^n] w + [(2+z)^n - 2(1+z)^n + z^n] w^2/2! + ... .
