Bóna conjectured that the descent polynomials on $(n-2)$-stack sortable permutations have only real zeros. Brändén proved this conjecture by establishing a more general result. In this paper, we give another proof of Brändén's result by using the theory of $s$-Eulerian polynomials recently developed by Savage and Visontai.

Let $f$ and $F$ be two polynomials satisfying $F(x)=u(x)f(x)+v(x)f'(x)$. We characterize the relation between the location and multiplicity of the real zeros of $f$ and $F$, which generalizes and unifies many known results, including the results of Brenti and Brändén about the $q$-Eulerian polynomials.

The bivariate series defines a partial theta function. For fixed q (∣q∣ < 1), θ(q, ·) is an entire function. For q ∈ (–1, 0) the function θ(q, ·) has infinitely many negative and infinitely many positive real zeros. There exists a sequence of values of q tending to –1+ such that has a double real zero (the rest of its real zeros being simple). For k odd (respectively, k even) has a local minimum (respectively, maximum) at , and is the rightmost of the real negative zeros of (respectively, for k sufficiently large is the second from the left of the real negative zeros of ). For k sufficiently large one has . One has and .

This paper contains a discussion of various points which arise in the numerical evaluation of the small real zeros of the confluent hypergeometric functionwhereThere are two distinct problems, first the determination of those values of x for which M(a, b; x) = 0, given a and b, and secondly the study of the curves represented by M (a, b; x) = 0, for fixed values of x. These curves all lie on the surface M(a, b; x) = 0, of course.
