Binomial condition conjecture
Let and be positive integers with , and let be a binomial random variable with parameters and :
Binomial conjecture. satisfies Condition .
If true, this would extend the range in which the paper's general theorem yields the Jogdeo–Samuels inequality, and may be viewed as a refinement of an older result of Simmons. The authors state that they are unable to verify the condition but believe it holds.
