Fractionally Log-Concave and Sector-Stable Polynomials: Counting Planar Matchings and More
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
While perfect matchings on planar graphs can be counted exactly in polynomial time, counting non-perfect matchings was shown by [Jer87] to be #P-hard, who also raised the question of whether efficient ...
As a byproduct of our techniques, we show that polynomials avoiding roots in a sector of the complex plane must satisfy what we call fractional log-concavity; this extends a classic result established ...
Fractionally Log-Concave Polynomials In this section, first, we show that any sector-stable polynomial is a fractionally log-concave polynomial as well. ...
