Abstract

Let [Formula: see text] be a triangular array of numbers. We say that [Formula: see text] is skew log-concave if for any fixed n, the sequence [Formula: see text] is log-concave. In this paper, we show that the Boros-Moll sequences are almost skew log-concave.

Keywords: log-concavity; skew log-concavity; the Boros-Moll sequence.
