Abstract: For every positive integer $n$, consider the linear operator $U_n$ on polynomials of degree at most $d$ with integer coefficients defined as follows: if we write $frach(t)(1-t{)}^{d+1}=su{m}_{mgeq0}g(m)t^m$, for some polynomial $g(m)$ with rational coefficients, then $frac{U}_{n}h(t)(1-t{)}^{d+1}=su{m}_{mgeq0}g(nm)t^m$. We show that there exists a positive integer $n_d$, depending only on $d$, such that if $h(t)$ is a polynomial of degree at most $d$ with nonnegative integer coefficients and $h(0)geq1$, then for $ngeq{n}_d$, $U_{n}h(t)$ has simple, real, strictly negative roots and positive, strictly log concave and strictly unimodal coefficients. Applications are given to Ehrhart $delta$-polynomials and unimodular triangulations of dilations of lattice polytopes, as well as Hilbert series of Veronese subrings of Cohen--MacCauley graded rings.
