Polynomials a la Lehmers and Wilf

TL;DR

This paper demonstrates that a specific period polynomial introduced by Lehmers is equivalent to a generalized Wilf polynomial, revealing a new connection between these mathematical objects.

Contribution

It establishes the equivalence between Lehmers' period polynomial and a generalized Wilf polynomial, providing new insights into their relationship.

Findings

Lehmers' period polynomial coincides with a generalized Wilf polynomial

The equivalence links two previously distinct polynomial classes

This connection may lead to further mathematical developments

Abstract

We show that a period polynomial introduced by the Lehmers coincides with a generalized Wilf polynomial.
