Total positivity of a class of combinatorial matrices

Abstract

In this paper, we consider matrices whose entries are combinatorial sequences which can be expressed in terms of a convolution of elementary and complete homogeneous symmetric functions. We establish the total positivity of these matrices using the Lindstr\"om-Gessel-Viennot Lemma.
