## poly family

How are these polynomials supposed to be related?
 Mentor Blog Entries: 8 Apparently, the OP is not a native english speaker and can't describe the problem well. I guess that he encountered these polynomials while working and he is asking if somebody recognizes them or sees an easy pattern in them.
 Thank you Micromass
 Recognitions: Homework Help Science Advisor Clearly the constant term alternates between 0 and 2. At the other end, you can get the leading term from the preceding line by multiplying by 2x/n. So the leading coefficient is 2n-1/n! So a natural thing to try is: - multiply each line by n! (starting with n=2 in the first line) to form the poly sequence Pn(x) - form a new sequence from this according to Qn(x) = Pn(x) - 2x*Pn-1(x) The coefficients that result look a little friendlier. The highest prime that occurs in this sample is 19, a lot better than 83.
