Infinite q-log-convexity conjecture for matching crossing-number polynomials

From papers

For each n1n\geq 1, let M2n(x)=kM2n,kxkM_{2n}(x)=\sum_k M_{2n,k}x^k, where M2n,kM_{2n,k} is the number of matchings on [2n][2n] with crossing number kk. A polynomial sequence is infinitely q-log-convex when every iterate of the relevant qq-log-convexity operator is qq-log-convex. Infinite qq-log-convexity conjecture. The polynomial sequence {M2n(x)}\{M_{2n}(x)\} is infinitely qq-log-convex. Furthermore, the polynomials M2n(x)M_{2n}(x) are log-concave of any order with respect to infinitely qq-log-convexity. This is the paper's strongest stated regularity proposal for matching crossing-number polynomials; the supplied text gives no resolution status.
