A Probabilistic Interpretation of a Sequence Related to Narayana Polynomials
نویسندگان
چکیده
A sequence of coefficients appearing in a recurrence for the Narayana polynomials is generalized. The coefficients are given a probabilistic interpretation in terms of beta distributed random variables. The recurrence established by M. Lasalle is then obtained from a classical convolution identity. Some arithmetical properties of the generalized coefficients are also established.

Narayana numbers and Schur-Szego composition
In the present paper we find a new interpretation of Narayana polynomials Nn(x) which are the generating polynomials for the Narayana numbers Nn,k = 1 n C k−1 n C k n where C i j stands for the usual binomial coefficient, i.e. C j = j! i!(j−i)! . They count Dyck paths of length n and with exactly k peaks, see e.g. [13] and they appeared recently in a number of different combinatorial situations...
متن کاملGeneralized Narayana Polynomials, Riordan Arrays, and Lattice Paths
We study a family of polynomials in two variables, identifying them as the moments of a two-parameter family of orthogonal polynomials. The coefficient array of these orthogonal polynomials is shown to be an ordinary Riordan array. We express the generating function of the sequence of polynomials under study as a continued fraction, and determine the corresponding Hankel transform. An alternati...
متن کاملKirillov's Unimodality Conjecture for the Rectangular Narayana Polynomials
In the study of Kostka numbers and Catalan numbers, Kirillov posed a unimodality conjecture for the rectangular Narayana polynomials. We prove that the rectangular Narayana polynomials have only real zeros, and thereby confirm Kirillov’s unimodality conjecture. By using an equidistribution property between descent numbers and ascent numbers on ballot paths due to Sulanke and a bijection between...

Use of integrated standards in today's economy is imperative to create efficient financial markets, improve resource allocation and reduce transaction costs. In the same vein, all countries must make a lot of effort to develop common standards. However, ethnic diversity in different parts of the world results in different interpretations and judgments from accounting standards and challenges a ...
