Polynomial formula conjecture for the fixed-degree coefficients Hn[d]H_n[d]

About 7 years old · traced to

Let Hn[d]H_n[d] be the fixed-degree coefficients considered in the generating series, and for each dd define

H(x;d)=∑n≥d+3Hn[d]π2(n−3−d)xn−1(n−1)!.\mathscr{H}(x;d)=\sum_{n\geq d+3}\frac{H_n[d]}{\pi^{2(n-3-d)}}\frac{x^{n-1}}{(n-1)!}.

For each d≥0d\geq 0, there exists a polynomial PdP_d of degree dd with rational coefficients such that

Hn[d]=2d+1(2d−1)!!Pd(n)2n−3−d(2(n−3−d))!(n−3−d)!π2(n−3−d).H_n[d]=\frac{2d+1}{(2d-1)!!}\frac{P_d(n)}{2^{n-3-d}}\frac{(2(n-3-d))!}{(n-3-d)!}\pi^{2(n-3-d)}.

The formula for d=0d=0 uses the convention (−1)!!=1(-1)!!=1. Equivalently, there exists P~d∈Q[x]\widetilde{P}_d\in\mathbb{Q}[x] such that

H(x;d)=[P~d(x)(1−x)3/2]≥d+2,\mathscr{H}(x;d)=\left[\widetilde{P}_d(x)(1-x)^{3/2}\right]_{\geq d+2},

where the truncation keeps only monomials of degree greater than d+2d+2. Polynomial formula conjecture. For every d≥0d\geq 0, the displayed formula holds for the coefficients Hn[d]H_n[d], equivalently with the stated generating-series representation.
