By using Sulanke-Xin continued fractions method, Xin proposed a recursion system to solve the Somos 4 Hankel determinant conjecture. We find Xin's recursion system indeed give a sufficient condition for $(\alpha, \beta)$ Somos $4$…
Sulanke and Xin developed a continued fraction method that applies to evaluate Hankel determinants corresponding to quadratic generating functions. We use their method to give short proofs of Cigler's Hankel determinant conjectures, which…
Michael Somos conjectured a relation between Hankel determinants whose entries $\frac 1{2n+1}\binom{3n}n$ count ternary trees and the number of certain plane partitions and alternating sign matrices. Tamm evaluated these determinants by…
Cigler considered certain shifted Hankel determinants of convolution powers of Catalan numbers and conjectured identities for these determinants. Recently, Fulmek gave a bijective proof of Cigler's conjecture. Cigler then provided a…
We evaluate the Hankel determinants of the convolution powers of Motzkin numbers for $r\leq 27$ by finding shifted periodic continued fractions, which arose in application of Sulanke and Xin's continued fraction method. We also conjecture…
We give conjectures on the form of families of integer sequences whose Hankel transforms are, respectively, $(\alpha, \beta)$ Somos $4$ sequences, $(\alpha, 0, \gamma)$ Somos $6$ sequences, and $(\alpha, \beta, \gamma, \delta)$ Somos $8$…
Many discrete integrable systems exhibit the Laurent phenomenon. In this paper, we investigate three integrable systems: the Somos-4 recurrence, the Somos-5 recurrence and a system related to so-called $A_1$ $Q$-system, whose general…
In this expository paper we compute Hankel determinants of some sequences whose generating functions are given by C-fractions and derive orthogonality properties for associated polynomials.
This note collects some results and conjectures for the generating functions of the Hankel determinants of certain polynomials which are related to Motzkin paths.
We prove evaluations of Hankel determinants of linear combinations of moments of orthogonal polynomials (or, equivalently, of generating functions for Motzkin paths), thus generalising known results for Catalan numbers.
In this paper we prove Garvan's conjectured formula for the square of the modular discriminant $\Delta$ as a 3 by 3 Hankel determinant of classical Eisenstein series $E_{2n}$. We then obtain similar formulas involving minors of Hankel…
As argued by Hone in the paper [Commun. Pure Appl. Math., 74(11):2310--2347, 2021], a ``mismatch" problem remained unsolved while he was investigating continued fraction expansions and Hankel determinants from hyperelliptic curves. In this…
We consider a Hankel determinant formula for generic solutions of the Painlev\'e IV equation. We show that the generating functions for the entries of the Hankel determinants are related to the asymptotic solution at infinity of the…
We prove and generalize a conjecture of Johann Cigler on the Hankel determinants of convolution powers of Narayana polynomials. Our method follows a "guess-and-prove" strategy, relying on established techniques involving Hankel continued…
The middle binomial coefficients can be interpreted as numbers of Motzkin paths which have no horizontal steps at positive heights. Assigning suitable weights gives some nice polynomial extensions. We determine the Hankel determinants and…
We give simple proofs for the Hankel determinants of q-exponential polynomials.
In this (mostly expository) paper I want to share some observations prompted by a class of matrices whose determinants are Catalan numbers. Considering different methods of proof we obtain some generalizations and q-analogues and…
In the paper, we give the recurrent equations of the Hankel determinants of the Cantor sequence, and show that the Hankel determinants as a double sequence is 3-automatic. With the help of the Hankel determinants, we prove that the…
We consider Hankel determinants of the sequence of Catalan numbers modulo 2 (interpreted as integers 0 and 1) and more generally Hankel determinants where the sum over all permutations reduces to a single signed permutation.
In this note, we construct explicit SOS decomposition of A Fourth Order Four Dimensional Hankel Tensor with A Symmetric Generating Vector, at the critical value. This is a supplementary note to Paper [3].
