Positivity rigidity conjecture for a binomial finite-difference sum
Fix , , with , and real numbers for . Suppose that, for every ,
Positivity rigidity conjecture. Then , and for ,
Moreover, the sum equals for and for . The conjecture was verified by Mathematica for and proved manually for , but its general status is unresolved.
