Integrality and positivity conjecture for integral binomial coefficients of interpolation polynomials
Let and be partitions with , and let denote the integral binomial coefficient for the interpolation-polynomial family . Let denote the semiring of polynomials with non-negative integer coefficients in the relevant parameter(s). Integrality and positivity conjecture. For the families and , the coefficient is a polynomial with non-negative integral coefficients in the parameter(s), so that . The adjacent coefficients are known to have this property, while the corresponding assertion for general binomial coefficients remains open.
