In the $1970$s, Nicolas proved that the partition function $p(n)$ is log-concave for $ n > 25$. In \cite{HNT21}, a precise conjecture on the log-concavity for the plane partition function $\func{pp}(n)$ for $n >11$ was stated. This was…

Here we study the roots of the doubly infinite family of Jensen polynomials $J_{\mathrm{PL}}^{d,n}(x)$ associated to MacMahon's plane partition function $\mathrm{PL}(n)$. Recently, Ono, Pujahari, and Rolen proved that $\mathrm{PL}(n)$ is…

The Tur\'{a}n inequalities and the higher order Tur\'{a}n inequalities arise in the study of Maclaurin coefficients of an entire function in the Laguerre-P\'{o}lya class. A real sequence $\{a_{n}\}$ is said to satisfy the Tur\'{a}n…

We prove that the number $q(n)$ of partitions into distinct parts is log-concave for $n \geq 33$ and satisfies the higher order Tur\'an inequalities for $n\geq 121$ conjectured by Craig and Pun. In doing so, we establish explicit error…

Nicolas and DeSalvo and Pak proved that the partition function $p(n)$ is log concave for $n \geq 25$. Chen, Jia and Wang proved that $p(n)$ satisfies the third order Tur\'{a}n inequality, and that the associated degree 3 Jensen polynomials…

Inequalities are important features in the context of sequences of numbers and polynomials. The Bessenrodt--Ono inequality for partition numbers and Nekrasov--Okounkov polynomials has only recently been discovered. In this paper we study…

We prove that the partition function $p(n)$ is log-concave for all $n>25$. We then extend the results to resolve two related conjectures by Chen. The proofs are based on Lehmer's estimates on the remainders of the Hardy--Ramanujan and the…

Bessenrodt and Ono, Chen, Wang and Jia, DeSalvo and Pak were the first to discover the log-subadditivity, log-concavity, and the third-order Tur\'{a}n inequality of partition function, respectively. Many other important partition statistics…

This paper deals with both the higher order Tur\'an inequalities and the Laguerre inequalities for quasi-polynomial-like functions -- that are expressions of the form $f(n)=c_l(n)n^l+\cdots+c_d(n)n^d+o(n^d)$, where $d,l\in\mathbb{N}$ and…

The partition function $p(n)$ and many of its related restricted partition functions have recently been shown independently to satisfy log-concavity: $p(n)^2 \geq p(n-1)p(n+1)$ for $n\geq 26$, and satisfy the inequality: $p(n)p(m) \geq…

Let $M_0(n)$ (resp. $M_1(n)$) denote the number of partitions of $n$ with even (reps. odd) crank. Choi, Kang and Lovejoy established an asymptotic formula for $M_0(n)-M_1(n)$. By utilizing this formula with the explicit bound, we show that…

We consider the higher order Tur\'an inequality and higher order log-concavity for sequences $\{a_n\}_{n \ge 0}$ such that \[ \frac{a_{n-1}a_{n+1}}{a_n^2} = 1 + \sum_{i=1}^m \frac{r_i(\log n)}{n^{\alpha_i}} + o\left( \frac{1}{n^{\beta}}…

Let $U_{n,d}$ be the uniform matroid of rank $d$ on $n$ elements. Denote by $g_{U_{n,d}}(t)$ the Speyer's $g$-polynomial of $U_{n,d}$. The Tur\'{a}n inequality and higher order Tur\'{a}n inequality are related to the Laguerre-P\'{o}lya…

We obtain an asymptotic formula for Andrews and Paule's broken $k$-diamond partition function $\Delta_k(n)$ where $k=1$ or $2$. Based on this asymptotic formula, we derive that $\Delta_k(n)$ satisfies the order $d$ Tur\'an inequalities for…

This paper confirms a conjecture of Amdeberhan and Moll that the power of 2 dividing the number of plane partitions in an n-cube is greater than the power of 2 dividing the number of totally symmetric plane partitions in the same cube when…

We consider the number of the $6$-regular partitions of $n$, $b_6(n)$, and give infinite families of congruences modulo $3$ (in arithmetic progression) for $b_6(n)$. We also consider the number of the partitions of $n$ into distinct parts…

The famous partition theorem of Euler states that partitions of $n$ into distinct parts are equinumerous with partitions of $n$ into odd parts. Another famous partition theorem due to MacMahon states that the number of partitions of $n$…

In the $1970$s Nicolas proved that the coefficients $p_d(n)$ defined by the generating function \begin{equation*} \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} p_d(n) \, q^n = \prod_{n=1}^{\infty} \left( 1- q^n\right)^{-n^{d-1}} \end{equation*} are log-concave for…

Let $\overline{p}(n)$ denote the overpartition funtion. Engel showed that for $n\geq2$, $\overline{p}(n)$ satisfied the Tur\'{a}n inequalities, that is, $\overline{p}(n)^2-\overline{p}(n-1)\overline{p}(n+1)>0$ for $n\geq2$. In this paper,…

Inspired by the work of C. Mortici [1] and A. Laforgia et. al [2] we have established some new Tur\'an-type inequalities for k-polygamma function and p-k-polygamma function.
