%N Constant term of the reduction by x^2 -> x+1 of the polynomial p(n,x) defined at Comments.

%C The titular polynomials are defined recursively: p(n,x) = x*p(n-1,x) + (n-1)^2, with p(0,x)=1. For an introduction to reductions of polynomials by substitutions such as x^2 -> x+1, see A192232 and A192744.
