Positivity of the Gillis-Reznick-Zeilberger rational function
نویسنده
چکیده
In this note we provide further evidence for a conjecture of Gillis, Reznick, and Zeilberger on the positivity of the diagonal coefficients of a multivariate rational function. Kauers had proven this conjecture for up to 6 variables using computer algebra. We present a variation of his approach that allows us to prove positivity of the coefficients up to 17 variables using symbolic computation.

Positivity of rational functions and their diagonals
The problem to decide whether a given rational function in several variables is positive, in the sense that all its Taylor coefficients are positive, goes back to Szegő as well as Askey and Gasper, who inspired more recent work. It is well known that the diagonal coefficients of rational functions are D-finite. This note is motivated by the observation that, for several of the rational function...
متن کاملExperiments with a Positivity-Preserving Operator
We consider some multivariate rational functions which have (or are conjectured to have) only positive coefficients in their series expansion. We consider an operator that preserves positivity of series coefficients, and apply the inverse of this operator to the rational functions. We obtain new rational functions which seem to have only positive coefficients, whose positivity would imply posit...

متن کاملHow to generate all possible rational Wilf-Zeilberger pairs?
A Wilf–Zeilberger pair (F,G) in the discrete case satisfies the equation F(n+ 1,k)−F(n,k) = G(n,k+ 1)−G(n,k). We present a structural description of all possible rational Wilf–Zeilberger pairs and their continuous and mixed analogues.
