Disturbing the Dyson conjecture, in a generally GOOD way

چکیده

Dyson’s celebrated constant term conjecture (J. Math. Phys., 3 (1962): 140–156) states that the constant term in the expansion of ∏ 15i6=j5n(1 − xi/xj)j is the multinomial coefficient (a1 +a2 + · · ·+an)!/(a1!a2! · · · an!). The definitive proof was given by I. J. Good (J. Math. Phys., 11 (1970) 1884). Later, Andrews extended Dyson’s conjecture to a q-analog (The Theory and Application of Special Functions, (R. Askey, ed.), New York: Academic Press, 191–224, 1975.) In this paper, closed form expressions are given for the coefficients of several other terms in the Dyson product, and are proved using an extension of Good’s idea. Also, conjectures for the corresponding q-analogs are supplied. Finally, perturbed versions of the q-Dixon summation formula are presented.

Disturbing the Dyson Conjecture (in a GOOD Way)

We present a case study in experimental yet rigorous mathematics by describing an algorithm, fully implemented in both Mathematica and Maple, that automatically conjectures, and then automatically proves, closed-form expressions extending Dyson’s celebrated constant term conjecture.

A Proof of Andrews ' < ? - Dyson Conjecture for «

Andrews' g-Dyson conjecture is that the constant term in a polynomial associated with the root system An _, is equal to the ^-multinomial coefficient. Good used an identity to establish the case q = 1, which was originally raised by Dyson. Andrews established his conjecture for n < 3 and Macdonald proved it when a¡ = a2 = ■ ■ ■ = a„ = 1,2 or oo for all n > 2. We use a ¿/-analog of Good's identi...

Wiener Way to Dimensionality

This note introduces a new general conjecture correlating the dimensionality dT of an infinite lattice with N nodes to the asymptotic value of its Wiener Index W(N). In the limit of large N the general asymptotic behavior W(N)≈Ns is proposed, where the exponent s and dT are related by the conjectured formula s=2+1/dT allowing a new definition of dimensionality dW=(s-2)-1. Being related to the t...

Unified Elementary Approach to the Dyson, Morris, Aomoto, and Forrester Constant Terms

We introduce an elementary method using only property of polynomials to give unified proofs of the Dyson, Morris, and Aomoto constant term identities. Such constant terms are polynomial in one parameter when fixing the others, and hence can be proved by finding the roots. When applying our method to the Forrester conjecture, we confirm many roots. As consequences, we reprove the cases N1 = 2, 3...
