Real rootedness of a polynomial

Let's consider $m$ and $n$ arbitrary positive integers, with $m\leq n$, and the polynomial given by: $$ P_{m,n}(t) := \sum_{j=0}^m \binom{m}{j}\binom{n}{j} t^j$$ I've found with Sage that for every $...

Upper bound for the $n$-th derivative of a rational function $\frac{f}{f+g}$

Let $f$ and $g$ be real polynomials with nonnegative coefficients. Let $$ h = \frac{f}{f+g}. $$ I want to prove that the $n$-th derivative of $h$ satisfies: There exists $C > 0$ such that $$ |h^{(...
