Scott–Sokal conjecture for elementary symmetric polynomials
For integers with , let be the th elementary symmetric polynomial, and consider its negative power on the positive orthant . Scott–Sokal's conjecture. The function is completely monotone on if and only if or . Scott and Sokal gave this conjectural parameter description; the paper proves the preceding Riesz-kernel conjecture for all elementary symmetric polynomials, but the source does not state here whether this exact conjecture is resolved.
