Strong q-log-convexity of the d-Hoggatt polynomials
Abstract
In this paper, three (q-)log-convexity or concavity properties related to the d-Hoggatt numbers are investigated. First, we show that the d-Hoggatt transformation preserves the log-convexity of a sequence. We then establish the strong q-log-concavity of a q-analog of d-Hoggatt numbers. Finally, we prove the core result of this work, namely, the sequence of d-Hoggatt polynomials is strongly q-log-convex, based on the theory of Schur functions.
