These polynomials gives odd Salem polynomials starting with n=7. The row sums are: {1, 1, 0, 0, -1, -1, -2, -2, -3, -3, -4,...} Example: 1 - x^9 - x^10 - x^11 - x^12 - x^13 - x^14 - x^15 - x^16 - x^17 -x^18 + x^19; with absolute value roots: {1., 0.957624, 0.957624, 0.997081, 0.997081, 0.962514, 0.962514, 0.98743, 0.98743, 0.972887, 0.972887, 0.96672, 0.96672, 0.989308, 0.989308, 0.915352, 0.915352, 0.837413, 1.99902}.
FORMULA
p(x,n)=If[n == 0, x^n - x^Floor[(n - 1)/2]*Sum[x^m, {m, 0, n - Floor[(n - 1)/2] - 1}] + 1/x, x^n - x^Floor[(n - 1)/2]*Sum[x^m, {m, 0, n - Floor[(n - 1)/2] - 1}] + 1]; t(n,m/)=coefficients(p(x,n)).
EXAMPLE
{1}, {0, 1}, {0, -1, 1}, {1, -1, -1, 1}, {1, -1, -1, -1, 1}, {1,0, -1, -1, -1, 1}, {1, 0, -1, -1, -1, -1, 1}, {1, 0, 0, -1, -1, -1, -1, 1}, {1, 0, 0, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, 1}, {1, 0, 0, 0, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, 1}, {1, 0, 0, 0, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1, 1}
