A symmetric decomposition of the Boros-Moll polynomials

Guo-Niu Han, Shi-Mei Ma, Yeong-Nan Yeh

In their study of a quartic integral, Boros and Moll introduced a special case of Jacobi polynomials, which are now known as the Boros-Moll polynomials. In this paper, we study a s…

Commuting Eulerian operators

Shi-Mei Ma, Hao Qi, Jean Yeh +1

Motivated by the work of Visontai and Dey-Sivasubramanian on the gamma-positivity of some polynomials, we find the commutative property of a pair of Eulerian operators. As an appli…

Stirling permutation codes

Shi-Mei Ma, Hao Qi, Jean Yeh +1

The development of the theories of the second-order Eulerian polynomials began with the works of Buckholtz and Carlitz in their studies of an asymptotic expansion. Gessel-Stanley i…

Positivity of Narayana polynomials and Eulerian polynomials

Shi-Mei Ma, Hao Qi, Jean Yeh +1

Gamma-positivity appears frequently in finite geometries, combinatorics and number theory. Motivated by the recent work of Sagan and Tirrell (Adv. Math., 374 (2020), 107387), we st…

Eulerian polynomials, Stirling permutations and increasing trees

Shi-Mei Ma, Jun Ma, Jean Yeh +1

We study two generalizations of the gamma-expansion of Eulerian polynomials from the viewpoint of the decompositions of statistics. We first present an expansion formula of the tri…

Excedance-type polynomials and gamma-positivity

Shi-Mei Ma, Jun Ma, Jean Yeh +1

The object of this paper is to give a systematic treatment of excedance-type polynomials. We first give a sufficient condition for a sequence of polynomials to have alternatingly i…
