Completeness conjectures for second and third Bernoulli polynomial derivatives

For k1k\geq1, define

Sk={n1:Bn(k)(x)Z[x]},\overline{\mathcal{S}}_k=\{n\geq1:\mathbf{B}^{(k)}_n(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[x]\},

and let Sk\mathcal{S}_k be the corresponding computable subsets, with

S2={1 ⁣7,9 ⁣13,15,16,21,25,28 ⁣31,36,37,55,57,60,61,70,121,190},\mathcal{S}_2=\{1\!-7,9\!-13,15,16,21,25,28\!-31,36,37,55,57,60,61,70,121,190\}, S3={1 ⁣18,20 ⁣22,25,26,28 ⁣32,35 ⁣38,42,50,52,55 ⁣58,60 ⁣62,66,70 ⁣72,78,80,92,110,121,122,156,176,177,190,191,210,392}.\mathcal{S}_3=\{1\!-18,20\!-22,25,26,28\!-32,35\!-38,42,50,52,55\!-58,60\!-62,66,70\!-72,78,80,92,110,121,122,156,176,177,190,191,210,392\}.

Second- and third-derivative completeness conjecture. One has

S2=S2andS3=S3.\overline{\mathcal{S}}_2=\mathcal{S}_2\qquad\text{and}\qquad\overline{\mathcal{S}}_3=\mathcal{S}_3.

The paper proves finiteness of all Sk\overline{\mathcal{S}}_k and records these computed sets, but does not establish their completeness.
