Let
${\overline{p}}(n)$
denote the overpartition function. In this paper, we study the asymptotic higher-order log-concavity property of the overpartition function in a similar framework done by Hou and Zhang for the partition function. This will enable us to move on further in order to prove log-concavity of overpartitions, explicitly by studying the asymptotic expansion of the quotient
${\overline{p}}(n-1){\overline{p}}(n+1)/{\overline{p}}(n)^2$
up to a certain order. This enables us to additionally prove 2-log-concavity and higher Turán inequalities with a unified approach.
Let p(n) denote the overpartition function. In this paper, we study the asymptotic higher order log-concavity property of the overpatition function in a similar framework done by Hou and Zhang for the partition function. This will enable us to move on further in order to prove log-concavity of overpartitions, explicitly by studying the asymptotic expansion of the quotient p(n − 1)p(n + 1)/p(n) 2 upto a certain order so that one can finally ends up with the phenomena of 2-log-concavity and higher order Turán property of p(n) by following a sort of unified approach.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
