Proof of a nonnegativity conjecture of Prellberg--Stanton
In 1994, Friedman, Joichi and Stanton conjectured that coefficients of the power-series $q+(1-q)\prod_{i=n}^{2n-1}\frac{1}{1-q^{i}}$ are nonnegative for $n\geq3$ and $n$ being odd. Let $\qbinom nm$ denote the Gaussian polynomial. In 2003, Prellberg and Stanton conjectured that coefficients of the power-series $(1-q)\qb...
