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}}…

We consider $\ell$-log-momotonic sequences and Laguerre inequality of order two 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}}…

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…

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…

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 prove the Ribenboim hypothesis, which states that if, starting from some integer $N$, consecutive prime numbers $p_ {n}$, $p_{n+1}$ satisfy the inequality $\sqrt {p_ {n+1}}-\sqrt{p_{n}} <1$, then the Landau problem # 4 (1912) has a…

The paper aims to establish the Tur\'an inequalities, the Laguerre inequalities (order $2$), and the determinantal inequalities (order $3$) for $\Delta p(n)$ and $\Delta \bar{p}(n)$, where $\Delta f(n)$ is the first-order forward difference…

We derive an asymptotic expansion with effective error bound for $u(n)$, counting the number of unimodal sequences of size $n$. We prove that $u(n)$ satisfies the higher order Tur\'{a}n inequalities for $n\geq33$ and that certain second…

We show how Turan's inequality $P_n(x)^2-P_{n-1}(x)P_{n+1}(x)\geq 0$ for Legendre polynomials and related inequalities can be proven by means of a computer procedure. The use of this procedure simplifies the daily work with inequalities.…

In recent years, Sun has proposed numerous conjectures regarding the log-concavity of root sequences $\{\sqrt[n]{a_n}}_{n\geqslant 1}$. We establish criteria for the asymptotic log-concavity of $\{\sqrt[n]{a_n}}_{n\geqslant 1}$ and the…

Let $g$ and $h$ be real-valued arithmetic functions, positive and normalized. Specific choices within the following general scheme of recursively defined polynomials \begin{equation*} P_n^{g,h}(x):= \frac{x}{h(n)} \sum_{k=1}^{n} g(k) \,…

We define a new class of functions, connected to the classical Laguerre-P\'{o}lya class, which we call the shifted Laguerre-P\'{o}lya class. Recent work of Griffin, Ono, Rolen, and Zagier shows that the Riemann Xi function is in this class.…

Previous analyses of Laguerre's method have provided results on the convergence and properties of this popular method when applied to the polynomials $p_n(z)=z^n-1$, $n\in\mathbb{N}$. While these analyses appear to provide a fairly complete…

In recent years, the log-concavity or log-convexity of combinatorial sequences and their root sequences, higher order Tur{\'a}n inequalities, and Laguerre inequalities of order two have been widely studied. However, the research of the…

The orthogonal polynomials $p_n$ satisfy Tur\'an's inequality if $p_n^2(x)-p_{n-1}(x)p_{n+1}(x)\ge 0$ for $n\ge 1$ and for all $x$ in the interval of orthogonality. We give general criteria for orthogonal polynomials to satisfy Tur\'an's…

Denote by $\mathbb{N}$ and $\mathbb{P}$ the set of all positive integers and prime numbers, respectively. Let $\mathbb{P}=\{p_1<p_2<\dots <p_n<\dots\}$, where $p_n$ is the $n$-th prime number. For $k\in\mathbb{N}$ we recursively define…

In this paper, we make use of Robin and Lagarias' criteria to prove Riemann hypothesis. The goal is, using Lagarias criterion for $n\geq 1$ since Lagarias criterion states that Riemann hypothesis holds if and only if the inequality…

We derive an inequality on the discrepancy of sequences on the ring of $p$-adic integers $\ZZ_p$ using techniques from Fourier analysis. The inequality is used to obtain an upper bound on the discrepancy of the sequence $\alpha_n = na +b$,…

The sequence $A(n)_{n \geq 0}$ of Ap\'ery numbers can be interpolated to $\mathbb{C}$ by an entire function. We give a formula for the Taylor coefficients of this function, centered at the origin, as a $\mathbb{Z}$-linear combination of…

Finding the $n$-th positive square number is easy, as it is simply $n^2$. But how do we find the complementary sequence, i.e., the $n$-th positive non-square number? For this case there is an explicit formula. However, for general…
