Monotonicity conjecture for the function
Let , let , and let be the function defined in the preceding analysis. Denote by the integer part of .
Monotonicity conjecture. is decreasing on for . For , is nondecreasing on when is even, and nonincreasing on when is odd.
The conjecture is motivated by the fact that and are stationary points of for and , together with numerical experiments. The supplied text gives no proof or resolution of the general monotonicity claims.
