%N Lower triangular matrix T(n,j) for double application of an iterated mixed order Laguerre transform inverse to A132014. Coefficients of Laguerre polynomials (-1)^n * n! * L(n,-2-n,x).

%C The matrix operation b = T*a can be characterized several ways in terms of the coefficients a(n) and b(n), their o.g.f.'s A(x) and B(x), or their e.g.f.'s EA(x) and EB(x).

%C 1) b(n) = n! Lag[n,(.)!*Lag[.,a1(.),-1],0], umbrally,

%C where a1(n) = n! Lag[n,(.)!*Lag[.,a(.),-1],0]

%C 2) b(n) = (-1)^n * n! * Lag(n,a(.),-2-n)

%C 3) b(n) = Sum_{j=0..n} (-1)^j * binomial(n,j) * binomial(-2,j) * j! * a(n-j)

%C 4) b(n) = Sum_{j=0..n} binomial(n,j) * (j+1)! * a(n-j)

%C 5) B(x) = (1-xDx))^(-2) A(x), formally

%C 6) B(x) = Sum_{j>=0} (-1)^j * binomial(-2,j) * (xDx)^j A(x)

%C = Sum_{j>=0} (j+1) * (xDx)^j A(x)

%C 7) B(x) = Sum_{j>=0} (j+1) * x^j * D^j * x^j A(x)

%C 8) B(x) = Sum_{j>=0} (j+1)! * x^j * Lag(j,-:xD:,0) A(x)

%C 9) EB(x) = Sum_{j>=0} x^j * Lag[j,(.)! * Lag[.,a1(.),-1],0]

%C 10) EB(x) = Sum_{j>=0} Lag[j,a1(.),-1] * (-x)^j / (1-x)^(j+1)

%C 11) EB(x) = Sum_{j>=0} x^n * Sum_{j=0..n} (j+1)!/j! * a(n-j) / (n-j)!

%C 12) EB(x) = Sum_{j>=0} (-x)^j * Lag[j,a(.),-2-j]

%C 13) EB(x) = exp(a(.)*x) / (1-x)^2 = (1-x)^(-2) * EA(x)

%C 14) T = A094587^2 = A132013^(-2) = A132014^(-1)

%C where Lag(n,x,m) are the Laguerre polynomials of order m, D the derivative w.r.t. x and (:xD:)^j = x^j * D^j. Truncating the D operator series at the j = n term gives an o.g.f. for b(0) through b(n).

%C c = (1!,2!,3!,4!,...) is the sequence associated to T under the list partition transform and associated operations described in A133314. Thus T(n,k) = binomial(n,k)*c(n-k) . c are also the coefficients in formulas 4 and 8.

%C The reciprocal sequence to c is d = (1,-2,2,0,0,0,...), so the inverse of T is TI(n,k) = binomial(n,k)*d(n-k) = A132014. (A121757 is the reverse of T.)

%C These formulas are easily generalized for m applications of the basic operator n! Lag[n,(.)!*Lag[.,a(.),-1],0] by replacing 2 by m in formulas 2, 3, 5, 6, 12, 13 and 14, or (j+1)! by (m-1+j)!/(m-1)! in 4, 8 and 11. For further discussion of repeated applications of T, see A132014.

%C The row sums of T = [formula 4 with a(n) all 1] = [binomial transform of c] = [coefficients of B(x) with A(x) = 1/(1-x)] = A001339. Therefore the e.g.f. of A001339 = [formula 13 with a(n) all 1] = exp(x)*(1-x)^(-2) = exp(x)*exp[c(.)*x)] = exp[(1+c(.))*x].

%C Note the reciprocal is 1/{exp[(1+c(.))*x]} = exp(-x)*(1-x)^2 = e.g.f. of signed A002061 with leading 1 removed], which makes A001339 and the signed, shifted A002061 reciprocal arrays under the list partition transform of A133314.

%C The e.g.f. for the row polynomials (see A132382) implies they form an Appell sequence (see Wikipedia). - _Tom Copeland_, Dec 03 2013

%C As noted in item 12 above and reiterated in the Bala formula below, the e.g.f. is e^(x*t)/(1-x)^2, and the Poisson-Charlier polynomials P_n(t,y) have the e.g.f. (1+x)^y e^(-xt) (Feinsilver, p. 5), so the row polynomials R_n(t) of this entry are (-1)^n P_n(t,-2). The associated Appell sequence IR_n(t) that is the umbral compositional inverse of this entry's polynomials has the e.g.f. (1-x)^2 e^(xt), i.e., the e.g.f. of A132014 (noted above), and, therefore, the row polynomials (-1)^n PC(t,2). As umbral compositional inverses, R_n(IR.(t)) = t^n = IR_n(R.(t)), where, by definition, P.(t)^n = P_n(t), is the umbral evaluation. - _Tom Copeland_, Jan 15 2016

%C T(n,k) is the number of ways to place (n-k) rooks in a 2 x (n-1) Ferrers board (or diagram) under the Goldman-Haglund i-row creation rook mode for i=2. Triangular recurrence relation is given by T(n,k) = T(n-1,k-1) + (n+1-k)*T(n-1,k). - _Ken Joffaniel M. Gonzales_, Jan 21 2016

%F T(n,k) = binomial(n,k)*c(n-k).

%F From _Peter Bala_, Jul 10 2008: (Start)

%F T(n,k) = binomial(n,k)*(n-k+1)!.

%F T(n,k) = (n-k+1)*T(n-1,k) + T(n-1,k-1).

%F E.g.f.: exp(x*y)/(1-y)^2 = 1 + (2+x)*y + (6+4*x+x^2)*y^2/2! + ... .

%F This array is the particular case P(2,1) of the generalized Pascal triangle P(a,b), a lower unit triangular matrix, shown below:

%F n\k|0....................1...............2.........3.....4

%F ----------------------------------------------------------

%F 0..|1.....................................................

%F 1..|a....................1................................

%F 2..|a(a+b)...............2a..............1................

%F 3..|a(a+b)(a+2b).........3a(a+b).........3a........1......

%F 4..|a(a+b)(a+2b)(a+3b)...4a(a+b)(a+2b)...6a(a+b)...4a....1

%F ...

%F See A094587 for some general properties of these arrays.

%F Other cases recorded in the database include: P(1,0) = Pascal's triangle A007318, P(1,1) = A094587, P(2,0) = A038207, P(3,0) = A027465, P(1,3) = A136215 and P(2,3) = A136216. (End)

%F Let f(x) = (1/x^2)*exp(-x). The n-th row polynomial is R(n,x) = (-x)^n/f(x)*(d/dx)^n(f(x)), and satisfies the recurrence equation R(n+1,x) = (x+n+2)*R(n,x)-x*R'(n,x). Cf. A094587. - _Peter Bala_, Oct 28 2011

%F Exponential Riordan array [1/(1 - y)^2, y]. The row polynomials R(n,x) thus form a Sheffer sequence of polynomials with associated delta operator equal to d/dx. Thus d/dx(R(n,x)) = n*R(n-1,x). The Sheffer identity is R(n,x + y) = Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(n,k)*y^(n-k)*R(k,x). Define a polynomial sequence P(n,x) of binomial type by setting P(n,x) = Product_{k = 0..n-1} (2*x + k) with the convention that P(0,x) = 1. Then the present triangle is the triangle of connection constants when expressing the basis polynomials P(n,x + 1) in terms of the basis P(n,x). For example, row 3 is (24, 18, 6, 1) so P(3,x + 1) = (2*x + 2)*(2*x + 3)*(2*x + 4) = 24 + 18*(2*x) + 6*(2*x)*(2*x + 1) + (2*x)*(2*x + 1)*(2*x + 2).

%F From _Tom Copeland_, Apr 21 2014: (Start)

%F T = (I-A132440)^(-2) = {2*I - exp[(A238385-I)]}^(-2) = unsigned exp[2*(I-A238385)] = exp[A005649(.)*(A238385-I)], umbrally, where I = identity matrix.

%F The e.g.f. is exp(x*y)*(1-y)^(-2), so the row polynomials form an Appell sequence with lowering operator D=d/dx and raising operator x+2/(1-D).

%F With L(n,m,x) = Laguerre polynomials of order m, the row polynomials are (-1)^n * n! * L(n,-2-n,x) = (-1)^n*(-2!/(-2-n)!)*K(-n,-2-n+1,x) where K is Kummer's confluent hypergeometric function (as a limit of n+s as s tends to zero).

%F Operationally, (-1)^n*n!*L(n,-2-n,-:xD:) = (-1)^n*x^(n+2)*:Dx:^n*x^(-2-n) = (-1)^n*x^2*:xD:^n*x^(-2) = (-1)^n*n!*binomial(xD-2,n) = (-1)^n*n!*binomial(-2,n)*K(-n,-2-n+1,-:xD:) where :AB:^n = A^n*B^n for any two operators. Cf. A235706.

%F The generalized Pascal triangle Bala mentions is a special case of the fundamental generalized factorial matrices in A133314. (End)

%F First-order recurrence for the row polynomials: (n - x)*R(n,x) = n*(n - x + 1)*R(n-1,x) - x^(n+1) with R(0,x) = 1.
