We explore the properties of this transformation, including in some cases a study of the Hankel transform of the transformed sequences. Starting from simple sequences with elementary rational generating functions, we obtain many sequences of combinatorial significance. We make extensive use of techniques drawn from the theory of Riordan arrays.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-04-09T14:51:32.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "15B36", "11B83", "11C20", "11Y55" ], "keywords": [ "integer sequences", "central transform", "elementary rational generating functions", "transformation", "hankel transform" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 27, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
