Suppose that p = p(n)*x^n + p(n-1)*x^(n-1) + ... + p(1)*x + p(0) is a polynomial and that Q is a sequence of polynomials
...
q(k,x)=t(k,0)*x^k+t(k,1)*x^(k-1)+...+t(k,k-1)*x+t(k,k),
...
for k=0,1,2,... The Q-upstep of p is the polynomial given by
...
U(p) = p(n)*q(n+1,x) + p(n-1)*q(n,x) + ... + p(0)*q(1,x); note that q(0,x) does not appear.
...
Now suppose that P=(p(n,x)) and Q=(q(n,x)) are sequences of polynomials, where n indicates degree. The fusion of P by Q, denoted by P**Q, is introduced here as the sequence W=(w(n,x)) of polynomials defined by w(0,x)=1 and w(n+1,x)=U(p(n,x)).
...
Strictly speaking, ** is an operation on sequences of polynomials. However, if P and Q are regarded as numerical triangles (e.g., coefficients of polynomials), then ** can be regarded as an operation on numerical triangles. In this case, row (n+1) of P**Q, for n >= 0, is given by the matrix product P(n)*QQ(n), where P(n)=(p(n,n)...p(n,n-1)......p(n,1), p(n,0)) and QQ(n) is the (n+1)-by-(n+2) matrix given by
...
q(n+1,0) .. q(n+1,1)........... q(n+1,n) .... q(n+1,n+1)
0 ......... q(n,0)............. q(n,n-1) .... q(n,n)
0 ......... 0.................. q(n-1,n-2) .. q(n-1,n-1)
...
0 ......... 0.................. q(2,1) ...... q(2,2)
0 ......... 0 ................. q(1,0) ...... q(1,1);
here, the polynomial q(k,x) is taken to be
q(k,0)*x^k + q(k,1)x^(k-1) + ... + q(k,k)*x+q(k,k-1); i.e., "q" is used instead of "t".
...
If s=(s(1),s(2),s(3),...) is a sequence, then the infinite square matrix indicated by
s(1)...s(2)...s(3)...s(4)...s(5)...
..0....s(1)...s(2)...s(3)...s(4)...
..0......0....s(1)...s(2)...s(3)...
..0......0.......0...s(1)...s(2)...
is the self-fusion matrix of s; e.g., A202453, A202670.
...
Example: let p(n,x)=(x+1)^n and q(n,x)=(x+2)^n. Then
...
w(0,x) = 1 by definition of W
w(1,x) = U(p(0,x)) = U(1) = p(0,0)*q(1,x) = 1*(x+2) = x+2;
w(2,x) = U(p(1,x)) = U(x+1) = q(2,x) + q(1,x) = x^2+5x+6;
w(3,x) = U(p(2,x)) = U(x^2+2x+1) = q(3,x) + 2q(2,x) + q(1,x) = x^3+8x^2+21x+18;
...
From these first 4 polynomials in the sequence P**Q, we can write the first 4 rows of P**Q when P, Q, and P**Q are regarded as triangles:
1;
1, 2;
1, 5, 6;
1, 8, 21, 18;
...
Generally, if P and Q are the sequences given by p(n,x)=(ax+b)^n and q(n,x)=(cx+d)^n, then P**Q is given by (cx+d)(bcx+a+bd)^n.
...
In the following examples, r(P**Q) is the mirror of P**Q, obtained by reversing the rows of P**Q.
...
..P...........Q.........P**Q.......r(P**Q)
(x+1)^n.....(x+1)^n.....A081277....A118800 (unsigned)
(x+1)^n.....(x+2)^n.....A193722....A193723
(x+2)^n.....(x+1)^n.....A193724....A193725
(x+2)^n.....(x+2)^n.....A193726....A193727

(2x+1)^n,...(x+1)^n.....A193734....A193735
...
Continuing, let u denote the polynomial x^n+x^(n-1)+...+x+1, and let Fibo[n,x] denote the n-th Fibonacci polynomial.
