    Summary: We study the properties of a logconcavity operator on a symmetric, unimodal subset of finite sequences. In doing so we are able to prove that there is a large unbounded region in this subset that is \(\infty\)-logconcave. This problem was motivated by the conjecture of Boros and Moll [cf. \textit{G. Boros} and \textit{V.H. Moll}, Irresistible integrals. Symbolics, analysis and experiments in the evaluation of integrals. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press (2004; Zbl 1090.11075)] that the binomial coefficients are \(\infty\)-logconcave.
