Gamma-positivity is an elementary property that polynomials with symmetric coefficients may have, which directly implies their unimodality. The idea behind it stems from work of Foata, Sch\"utzenberger and Strehl on the Eulerian…

We find a $q$-analog of the following symmetrical identity involving binomial coefficients $\binom{n}{m}$ and Eulerian numbers $A_{n,m}$, due to Chung, Graham and Knuth [{\it J. Comb.}, {\bf 1} (2010), 29--38]: {equation*} \sum_{k\geq…
The classical Eulerian polynomials can be expanded in the basis $t^{k-1}(1+t)^{n+1-2k}$ ($1\leq k\leq\lfloor (n+1)/2\rfloor$) with positive integral coefficients. This formula implies both the symmetry and the unimodality of the Eulerian…
