The cauliflower convergence conjecture for Euclid polynomial series

Let Ek(λ)E_k(\lambda) denote the Euclid polynomials, and consider the series

1λ=k=1n1Ek(λ)+1En+1(λ)1.\frac{1}{\lambda}=\sum_{k=1}^{n}\frac{1}{E_k(\lambda)}+\frac{1}{E_{n+1}(\lambda)-1}.

The “cauliflower” is the region depicted in Figure. Cauliflower convergence conjecture. There is convergence outside the “cauliflower” and divergence inside the cauliflower. The preceding discussion establishes convergence for λ>0\lambda>0 and divergence for λ=12\lambda=-\frac{1}{2}, while the conjecture asserts the corresponding classification throughout the regions determined by the cauliflower.
