On a Stirling-Whitney-Riordan triangle
Abstract
Based on the Stirling triangle of the second kind, the Whitney triangle of the second kind and one triangle of Riordan, we study a Stirling-Whitney-Riordan triangle satisfying the recurrence relation: \begin{eqnarray*} T_{n,k}&=&(b_1k+b_2)T_{n-1,k-1}+[(2\lambda b_1+a_1)k+a_2+\lambda( b_1+b_2)] T_{n-1,k}+\\ &&\lambda(a_1+\lambda b_1)(k+1)T_{n-1,k+1}, \end{eqnarray*} where initial conditions unless and . We prove that the Stirling-Whitney-Riordan triangle is -totally positive with . We show that the row-generating function has only real zeros and the Tur\'{a}n-type polynomial is stable. We also present explicit formulae for and the exponential generating function of and give a Jacobi continued fraction expansion for the ordinary generating function of . Furthermore, we get the -Stieltjes moment property and --log-convexity of and show that the triangular convolution preserves Stieltjes moment property of sequences. Finally, for the first column , we derive some properties similar to those of
