Page 2, Equation (1.1): “∑{d=0}^{∞} h_d(x₁, x₂, …, x_n) t^d = ∏{i=1}^{n} 1/(1 − x_i t).” The polynomial hsymm is evaluated at the real eigenvalues of the path adjacency matrix.

Page 2, Theorem 1.4: “Suppose d ≥ 2 is even. The following function defines a norm on H_n: ‖A‖_d = h_d(λ₁, λ₂, …, λ_n)^{1/d}.” Natural d is cast to ℝ in the reciprocal exponent.

Commentary.
Page 14, Section 5, Problem 1: “The path of order n has m = n − 1 edges. Proposition 5.14 (a) therefore implies that ‖P_n‖₂ = √(n − 1). However, computing ‖P_n‖_d for d ≥ 4 seems unattainable at the moment. We leave this is an interesting open problem. Problem 1. Compute ‖P_n‖_d for d ≥ 4.” Here n ≥ 1 and d=2m with m ≥ 2; both the symmetric polynomial and its real root are specified.

Rescaling the geometric series gives the inverse of 1−aX over any commutative ring.

The product over adjacency eigenvalues is the path determinant. Its reciprocal generates the symmetric polynomials.

Commentary.
For x(1+q)²=q, the recurrence identity (1+q)ⁿ cont(x;1,1;n)(1−q)=1−qⁿ⁺¹ holds at every order n. It supplies the reciprocal-continuant substitution; the Catalan coefficient transform then gives a binomial second difference and a geometric series of reflections.

The second-difference expression gives the complete homogeneous symmetric value and hence its real root.

The identity with the second-kind Chebyshev polynomial after scaling the variable gives degree n.
