( q, (n!! 2 and they have been extensively studied Chen, Wang and Yang [8] obtained the strong q-log-convexity of B n (q Note that B n (q + n ( 2! ( q 2 and it is not hard to prove that the sequence { ( 2! ( q 2 } 0 is strongly q-log-convex Thus we have the following corollary by Proposition 22 Corollary 26 [8] The Bessel polynomials B n (q form a strongly q-log-convex sequence Proposition 27 If {f (q} 0 is strongly q-log-convex, then the polynomials b n (q f (q for n 0 form a strongly q-log-convex sequence n Proof Let a(n, for 0 n Then by Theorem 21, it suffices to show that the triangle {a(n, } satisfies the conditions (C1 and (C2 Let g n (q n q (1 + q n for n 0 It follows that g n1 (qg m+1 (q g n (qg m (q 0 for any m n Thus the sequence {g n (q} n 0 is strongly q-log-convex, and so the condition (C1 is satisfied We proceed to demonstrating the condition (C2 as follows Note that a(n, Let m n, 0 t m + n and 0 t/2 If t is even and t/2, then ( ( n 1 m + 1 a (m, n, t ( m < 0 the electronic journal of combinatorics 22(3 (2015, #P326 6

8 Let the Bell polynomial B(n, q n 0 S(n, q, where S(n, is the Stirling number of the second ind It was proved that the polynomials B(n, q form a strongly q-log-convex sequence, see Chen et al [8] and Zhu [26, 27] Note that B(n + 1, q B(n, q Thus, by induction and Proposition 27, we can give a new proof for n the strong q-log-convexity of B(n, q Let the polynomial W n (q 0 ( 2 n q, which is called the Narayana polynomials of type B, see [6] Liu and Wang [15] conjectured that {W n (q} n 0 is q-log-convex, which was proved by Chen et al [6] using the theory of symmetric functions In addition, Zhu [26] proved the strong q-log-convexity of W n (q Now we can extend it to the following by Theorem 21 Proposition 28 If {f (q} 0 is strongly q-log-convex, then the polynomials s n (q 2f (q form a strongly q-log-convex sequence n Proof Note that the strong q-log-convexity of W n (q has been proved, see Zhu [26] So the condition (C1 of Theorem 21 is satisfied Note that a(n, 2, m n, 0 t m + n and 0 t/2 If t is even and t/2, then ( 2 ( 2 n 1 m + 1 a (m, n, t 2 ( m 2 < 0 If 0 < t/2, then { (n 2 ( 2 ( 2 ( } 2 1 m + 1 n m a (m, n, t t t { (m 2 ( 2 ( 2 ( } n 1 m n + t t ( 2 ( 2 nt (m + n + 1 n(2m + 2 t (m n + 1 n m n[m + 1 (t ] n[m + 1 (t ] t A 2 ( 2 ( 2 (m + n + 1 (m + 1t (m + 1(2n t + (m n + 1 m n + n(m + 1 n(m + 1 t B 2 We find that if 0 <, then A t(m+1 2 > 0 and B 2 < 0; if < t/2 <, then A 2 0 and B 2 < 0 Thus a (m, n, t < 0 if < t/2 And ( 2 ( 2 ( 2 ( 2 m + 1 m n 1 n a 0 (m, n, t + t t t t ( {( ( } t m m + 1 m + t ( {( ( } n n 1 n + > 0 m + 1 t t t t n t t t the electronic journal of combinatorics 22(3 (2015, #P326 8
