چکیده

In this note we consider unimodality problems of sequences of multinomial coefficients and symmetric functions. The results presented here generalize our early results for binomial coefficients. We also give an answer to a question of Sagan about strong q-log-concavity of certain sequences of symmetric functions, which can unify many known results for q-binomial coefficients and q-Stirling numbers of two kinds.

Coefficient Estimates for a General Subclass of m-fold Symmetric Bi-univalent Functions by Using Faber Polynomials

In the present paper, we introduce a new subclass H∑m (λ,β)of the m-fold symmetric bi-univalent functions. Also, we find the estimates of the Taylor-Maclaurin initial coefficients |am+1| , |a2m+1| and general coefficients |amk+1| (k ≥ 2) for functions in this new subclass. The results presented in this paper would generalize and improve some recent works of several earlier authors.

On Unimodality Problems in Pascal's Triangle

Many sequences of binomial coefficients share various unimodality properties. In this paper we consider the unimodality problem of a sequence of binomial coefficients located in a ray or a transversal of the Pascal triangle. Our results give in particular an affirmative answer to a conjecture of Belbachir et al which asserts that such a sequence of binomial coefficients must be unimodal. We als...

BOUNDS ON KRONECKER AND q-BINOMIAL COEFFICIENTS

We present a lower bound on the Kronecker coefficients of the symmetric group via the characters of Sn, which we apply to obtain various explicit estimates. Notably, we extend Sylvester’s unimodality of q-binomial coefficients ( n k ) q as polynomials in q to derive sharp bounds on the differences of their consecutive coefficients.

Unimodality of Differences of Specialized Schur Functions

The centered difference of principally specialized Schur functions s λ̃ (1, q, · · · , q)− qnsλ(1, q, · · · , q ) is shown to be a symmetric, unimodal polynomial in q with non-negative coefficients for certain choices of λ̃, λ, and n, in which λ̃ is always obtained from λ by adding two cells, and n is chosen to be odd or even depending on λ̃, λ. The basic technique is to find an injection of repres...

Coefficient Estimates for a New Subclasses of m-fold Symmetric Bi-Univalent Functions

The purpose of the present paper is to introduce two new subclasses of the function class ∑m  of bi-univalent functions which both f  and f-1  are m-fold symmetric analytic functions. Furthermore, we obtain estimates on the initial coefficients for functions in each of these new subclasses. Also we explain the relation between our results with earlier known results.
