Abstract: Fixing a positive integer $r$ and $0lekler-1$, define $f^{langler,kangle}$ for every formal power series $f$ as $f(x)=f^{langler,0angle}(x^r)+x{f}^{langler,1angle}(x^r)+cdots+x^{r-1}{f}^{langler,r-1angle}(x^r).$ Jochemko recently showed that the polynomial $U_{r,k}^n,h(x):=left((1+x+cdots+x^{r-1}{)}^{n}h(x)ight{)}^{langler,kangle}$ has only nonpositive zeros for any $rgedegh(x)-k$ and any positive integer $n$. As a consequence, Jochemko confirmed a conjecture of Beck and Stapledon on the Ehrhart polynomial $h(x)$ of a lattice polytope of dimension $n$, which states that $U_{r,0}^n,h(x)$ has only negative, real zeros whenever $rgen$. In this paper, we provide an alternative approach to Beck and Stapledon's conjecture by proving the following general result: if the polynomial sequence $left(h^{langler,r-iangle}(x)ight{)}_{1leiler}$ is interlacing, so is $left(U_{r,r-i}^n,h(x)ight{)}_{1leiler}$. Our result has many other interesting applications. In particular, this enables us to give a new proof of Savage and Visontai's result on the interlacing property of some refinements of the descent generating functions for colored permutations. Besides, we derive a Carlitz identity for refined colored permutations.
