Infinite sign-change conjecture for the orthorecursive coefficients

About 7 years old · traced to

Let (cn)n≥0(c_n)_{n\geq0} be the real coefficient sequence, and say that it changes sign at N>0N>0 when cNcN+1<0c_Nc_{N+1}<0.

Sign-change conjecture. The sequence (cn)n≥0(c_n)_{n\geq0} changes sign infinitely often.

Numerical experiments find sign changes at 0,1,27,533,10457,…0,1,27,533,10457,\ldots, but do not establish infinitude; the conjecture concerns the continuation of this observed oscillation.
