Bárány's conjecture on extrema and Turán bounds for Bessel functions
Bárány's conjecture on extrema and Turán bounds for Bessel functions
Let , and let be the Bessel function of the first kind of order . Write for its positive zeros, set , and define
for . The roots of are denoted by .
Bessel-function conjecture. The equation has infinitely many roots, with
for every . Moreover, if , then
for , the sequence is strictly increasing, and with .
This conjecture proposes a sharp interval-by-interval improvement of Szász's Turán inequality, with the constants determined by the interior extrema of the normalized Turánian. Its resolution is not established in the supplied text.
