Abstract:

In this paper, we mainly study the log-balancedness of combinatorial sequences. We first give some new sufficient conditions for log-balancedness of some kinds of sequences. Then we use these results to derive the log-balancedness of a number of log-convex sequences related to derangement numbers, Domb numbers, numbers of tree-like polyhexes, numbers of walks on the cubic lattice, and so on.
