Sign-alternation conjecture for the flat Bernoulli game coefficients
Let be the coefficient of in , so that for ,
The first entries are positive, while is negative and the subsequent entries appear to have alternating signs. Sign-alternation conjecture. For ,
Equivalently, holds for . This is the conjectured continuation of the observed alternation in the coefficient sequence associated with the flat Bernoulli game; the supplied text gives no resolution of the conjecture.
