Suppose q is a rational number such that the number r = sqrt(q) is irrational. The function (r x + r)^n - (r x - 1/r)^n of x can be represented as k*p(x,n), where k is a constant and p(x,n) is a product of nonconstant polynomials having GCD = 1; the sequence p(x,n) is a strong divisibility sequence of polynomials; i.e., gcd(p(x,h),p(x,k)) = p(x,gcd(h,k)). For A327320, r = sqrt(6). If x is an integer, then p(x,n) is a strong divisibility sequence of integers.

p(x,3) = (1/k)((7 (31 + 90 x + 108 x^2))/(6 sqrt(6))), where k = 7/(6 sqrt(6)).
First six rows:

5, 12;
31, 90, 108;
185, 744, 1080, 864;
1111, 5550, 11160, 10800, 6480;
6665, 39996, 99900, 133920, 97200, 46656;
5713, 39990, 119988, 199800, 200880, 116640, 46656;
The first six polynomials, not factored:
1, 5 + 12 x, 31 + 90 x + 108 x^2, 185 + 744 x + 1080 x^2 + 864 x^3, 1111 + 5550 x + 11160 x^2 + 10800 x^3 + 6480 x^4, 6665 + 39996 x + 99900 x^2 + 133920 x^3 + 97200 x^4 + 46656 x^5.
The first six polynomials, factored:
1, 5 + 12 x, 31 + 90 x + 108 x^2, (5 + 12 x) (37 + 60 x + 72 x^2), 1111 + 5550 x + 11160 x^2 + 10800 x^3 + 6480 x^4, (5 + 12 x) (43 + 30 x + 36 x^2) (31 + 90 x + 108 x^2).
