Unbounded Regions of Infinitely Logconcave Sequences
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the properties of a logconcavity operator on a symmetric, unimodal subset of finite sequences. In doing so we are able to prove that there is a large unbounded region in this subset that is ∞-logconcave. This problem was motivated by the conjecture of Moll and Boros in [1] that the binomial coefficients are ∞-logconcave.

A short, based on the mixed volume, proof of Liggett’s theorem on the convolution of ultra-logconcave sequences
R. Pemantle conjectured, and T.M. Liggett proved in 1997, that the convolution of two ultra-logconcave is ultra-logconcave. Liggett’s proof is elementary but long. We present here a short proof, based on the mixed volume of convex sets.

متن کاملPoisson processes and a log-concave Bernstein theorem
We discuss interplays between log-concave functions and log-concave sequences. We prove a Bernstein-type theorem, which characterizes the Laplace transform of logconcave measures on the half-line in terms of log-concavity of the alternating Taylor coefficients. We establish concavity inequalities for sequences inspired by the PrékopaLeindler and the Walkup theorems. One of our main tools is a s...
متن کاملThe Lagrangian Conley Conjecture
We prove a Lagrangian analogue of the Conley conjecture: given a 1-periodic Tonelli Lagrangian with global flow on a closed configuration space, the associated EulerLagrange system has infinitely many periodic solutions. More precisely, we show that there exist infinitely many contractible periodic solutions with a priori bounded mean action and unbounded integer period.
متن کاملA Family of Palindromic Polynomials
The relation between the roots of a polynomial P (z) and its coefficients was one of the driving forces in the development of Algebra. The desire to obtain a closed-form expression for the roots of P (z) = 0 ended with a negative solution at the hands of N. Abel and E. Galois at the beginning of the 19 century: a generic polynomial equation of degree 5 or more cannot be solved by radicals. The ...
