The q-Log-convexity of the Generating Functions of the Squares of Binomial Coefficients
William Y. C. Chen ; Robert L. Tang ; Larry X. W. Wang ; Arthur L. B. Yang ;
Date 13 Oct 2008
AbstractWe prove a conjecture of Liu and Wang on the q-log-convexity of the polynomial sequence ${sum_{k=0}^n{nchoose k}^2q^k}_{ngeq 0}$. By using Pieri’s rule and the Jacobi-Trudi identity for Schur functions, we obtain an expansion of a sum of products of elementary symmetric functions in terms of Schur functions with nonnegative coefficients. Then the principal specialization leads to the q-log-convexity. We also prove that a technical condition of Liu and Wang holds for the squares of the binomial coefficients. Hence we deduce that the linear transformation with respect to the triangular array ${{nchoose k}^2}_{0leq kleq n}$ is log-convexity preserving.
