Boros and Moll's infinite log-concavity conjecture for Boros-Moll sequences
Boros and Moll's infinite log-concavity conjecture for Boros-Moll sequences
Let denote the coefficient of in the Boros-Moll polynomial , for . A sequence is -log-concave when its first iterates under the operator are nonnegative, where and ; it is -log-concave when this holds for every . Boros and Moll's conjecture. The Boros-Moll sequence is -log-concave. This conjecture remains open, despite the known log-concavity of these sequences.
