چکیده
Based on the recurrence relations on the coefficients of the Boros-Moll polynomials Pm(a) = ∑ i di(m)a i derived independently by Kauers and Paule, and Moll, we are led to the discovery of the reverse ultra log-concavity of the sequence {di(m)}. We also show that the sequence {i!di(m)} is log-concave for m ≥ 1. Two conjectures are proposed.

The ratio monotonicity of the Boros-Moll polynomials
In their study of a quartic integral, Boros and Moll discovered a special class of Jacobi polynomials, which we call the Boros-Moll polynomials. Kauers and Paule proved the conjecture of Moll that these polynomials are logconcave. In this paper, we show that the Boros-Moll polynomials possess the ratio monotone property which implies the log-concavity and the spiral property. We conclude with a...
متن کاملBrändén’s Conjectures on the Boros-Moll Polynomials
We prove two conjectures of Brändén on the real-rootedness of the polynomials Qn(x) and Rn(x) which are related to the Boros-Moll polynomials Pn(x). In fact, we show that both Qn(x) and Rn(x) form Sturm sequences. The first conjecture implies the 2-log-concavity of Pn(x), and the second conjecture implies the 3-log-concavity of Pn(x).

متن کاملA Proof of Moll’s Minimum Conjecture
Abstract. Let di(m) denote the coefficients of the Boros-Moll polynomials. Moll’s minimum conjecture states that the sequence {i(i+1)(d2i (m)−di−1(m)di+1(m))}1≤i≤m attains its minimum with i = m. This conjecture is a stronger than the log-concavity conjecture proved by Kausers and Paule. We give a proof of Moll’s conjecture by utilizing the spiral property of the sequence {di(m)}0≤i≤m, and the ...
متن کاملSkew log-concavity of the Boros-Moll sequences
Let [Formula: see text] be a triangular array of numbers. We say that [Formula: see text] is skew log-concave if for any fixed n, the sequence [Formula: see text] is log-concave. In this paper, we show that the Boros-Moll sequences are almost skew log-concave.
متن کاملRatio Monotonicity of Polynomials Derived from Nondecreasing Sequences
The ratio monotonicity of a polynomial is a stronger property than log-concavity. Let P (x) be a polynomial with nonnegative and nondecreasing coefficients. We prove the ratio monotone property of P (x+ 1), which leads to the log-concavity of P (x+ c) for any c ≥ 1 due to Llamas and Mart́ınez-Bernal. As a consequence, we obtain the ratio monotonicity of the Boros-Moll polynomials obtained by Che...
