Polynomiality conjecture for even Catalan convolution Hankel determinants
Polynomiality conjecture for even Catalan convolution Hankel determinants
Let be the Catalan generating function, let , and write for the Hankel determinant of the coefficients of . For a positive integer , set . Even polynomiality conjecture. For , both
and
are polynomials in of degree . This conjecture predicts the polynomial structure underlying the observed periodic Hankel determinant patterns; computations for convolution powers up to support it, but the paper does not prove it.
