In [[mathematics]], a '''polynomial sequence''' is a [[sequence]] of [[polynomial]]s 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]].

{{Short description|Sequence valued in polynomials}}

In [[mathematics]], a '''polynomial sequence''' is a [[sequence]] of [[polynomial]]s indexed by the nonnegative integers[[integer]]s 0, 1, 2, 3, ..., in which each [[indexed family|index]] is [[equal]] to the [[degree of a polynomial|degree]] of the corresponding polynomial. Polynomial sequences are a topic of interest in [[enumerative combinatorics]] and [[algebraic combinatorics]], as well as [[applied mathematics]].
