COMMENTS

The polynomial p(n,x) is defined by ((x+d)/2)^n+((x-d)/2)^n, where d=sqrt(x^2+4). For an introduction to reductions of polynomials by substitutions such as x^2->x+2, see A192232.

EXAMPLE
|
The first five polynomials p(n,x) and their reductions are as follows:
p(0,x)=2 -> 2
p(1,x)=x -> x
p(2,x)=2+x^2 -> 4+x
p(3,x)=3x+x^3 -> 2+6x
p(4,x)=2+4x^2+x^4 -> 16+9x.
From these, read
A192423=(2,0,4,2,16,...) and A192424=(0,1,1,6,9,...)
