In this note, we prove the positivity of Maclaurin coefficients of polynomials written in terms of rising factorials and arbitrary log-concave sequences. These polynomials arise naturally in studying log-concavity of rising factorial series. Several conjectures concerning zeros and coefficients of a generalized form of those polynomials are advanced. Also polynomials whose generating functions are higher-order Toeplitz determinants formed by rising factorial series are considered. Three…

A conjecture on monotonicity of a ratio of Kummer hypergeometric functions
