Abel polynomials

The Abel polynomials are a sequence of polynomials named after Niels Henrik Abel, defined by the following equation:

p_{n}(x)=x(x-an)^{n-1}

This polynomial sequence is of binomial type: conversely, every polynomial sequence of binomial type may be obtained from the Abel sequence using umbral calculus.

Examples

For $a = 1$ , the polynomials are (sequence A137452 in the OEIS)

p_{0}(x)=1;

p_{1}(x)=x;

p_{2}(x)=-2x+x^{2};

p_{3}(x)=9x-6x^{2}+x^{3};

p_{4}(x)=-64x+48x^{2}-12x^{3}+x^{4};

For $a = 2$ , the polynomials are

p_{0}(x)=1;

p_{1}(x)=x;

p_{2}(x)=-4x+x^{2};

p_{3}(x)=36x-12x^{2}+x^{3};

p_{4}(x)=-512x+192x^{2}-24x^{3}+x^{4};

p_{5}(x)=10000x-4000x^{2}+600x^{3}-40x^{4}+x^{5};

p_{6}(x)=-248832x+103680x^{2}-17280x^{3}+1440x^{4}-60x^{5}+x^{6};
