A q-super Catalan Laurent-polynomial conjecture
A q-super Catalan Laurent-polynomial conjecture
Let , , and be positive integers. Let be a non-negative integer with , and let be an integer. Let and denote the -binomial expressions defined earlier in the paper. The q-super Catalan conjecture. The expression
is a Laurent polynomial in , and it has non-negative integer coefficients when . This refines the preceding result on -super Catalan numbers and is a -analogue of a conjecture of Guo and Zeng; its status is presented in the paper as an open problem.
