COMMENTS
| 1. Q(n,1)=A073834(n) for n>=1.
2. For n>=3, Q(n)=Q(n,x)=i*T(n,i*x), where T(n) is the polynomial at A147986.
Thus all the zeros of Q(n,x), for n>=2, are nonreal.

FORMULA
| The basic idea is to iterate the reciprocation-sum mapping
x/y -> x/y+y/x. Let x be an indeterminate, P(1)=x, Q(1)=1 and for n>1,
define P(n)=P(n-1)^2+Q(n-1)^2 and Q(n)=P(n-1)*Q(n-1), so that
P(n)/Q(n)=P(n-1)/Q(n-1)-Q(n-1)/P(n-1).

EXAMPLE
| Q(1)=1
Q(2)=x
Q(3)=x^3+x
Q(4)=x^7+4*x^5+4*x^3+1
so that as an array A147988 begins with
1
1 0
1 0 1 0
1 0 4 0 4 0 1
