Exceptional negative coefficients conjecture for
Exceptional negative coefficients conjecture for
Let be defined by
where and are positive integers. A coefficient is negative when it is less than zero. The exceptional negative coefficients conjecture for . The only negative coefficients of
occur at and . The claim refines the expected sign pattern for a series for which full positivity is not asserted.
