Polynomial sequence
View on Wikipediafrom Wikipedia
In mathematics, a polynomial sequence is a sequence of polynomials indexed by the nonnegative integers 0, 1, 2, 3, ..., in which each index is equal to the degree of the corresponding polynomial. Polynomial sequences are a topic of interest in enumerative combinatorics and algebraic combinatorics, as well as applied mathematics.
Examples
[edit]Some polynomial sequences arise in physics and approximation theory as the solutions of certain ordinary differential equations:
Others come from statistics:
Many are studied in algebra and combinatorics:
Classes of polynomial sequences
