Lalín–Rogers-type conjecture for Ramanujan-type polynomial zeros

From papers

For a prime number pp and a natural number kk, define the Ramanujan-type polynomial

R2k+1,p(z):=j=1k(p2j1)(p2k+22j1)B2j(2j)!B2k+22j(2k+22j)!(pz)2k+22j.\mathfrak{R}_{2k+1,p}(z):=\sum_{j=1}^{k}(p^{2j}-1)(p^{2k+2-2j}-1)\frac{B_{2j}}{(2j)!}\frac{B_{2k+2-2j}}{(2k+2-2j)!}(pz)^{2k+2-2j}.

Ramanujan-type polynomial zero conjecture. The polynomial R2k+1,p(z)\mathfrak{R}_{2k+1,p}(z) has only the real zero z=0z=0 of multiplicity 22; all remaining zeros are non-real, lie on the circle z=1/p|z|=1/p, and are simple. For p=2p=2, the corresponding assertion was proved by Lalín and Rogers, while the conjecture proposes the analogous statement for every prime pp.
